The first train tracks on the new crossing loop at Rowsley were laid last week by the McConnell Dowell team.

“It’s great to see the first tracks laid on this critical project, which will improve the reliability of Ballarat line services.” Minister for Public Transport Jacinta Allan

The laying of tracks and sleepers on the new crossing loop comes weeks after the Andrews Labor Government announced further train service restorations and added yet another carriage to Ballarat line services.

The project will also upgrade the rail crossing at Rowsley Station Road. Boom gates will be installed, which will bolster the existing flashing lights, making it safer for motorists, passengers and the local community.
