Minister for Transport Infrastructure Danny Pearson announced buses will replace trains on sections of the Cranbourne, Pakenham and Gippsland lines at various times throughout March, April and May as testing ramps up for the Metro Tunnel.
On the Pakenham line, construction will continue on the new premium stations at Pakenham and Pakenham East, and a new Narre Warren Station set to open in late March.
There will also be road and rail disruptions on sections of the Belgrave and Lilydale line until late March, as crews work to remove the Bedford Road, Ringwood level crossing.
The West Gate Tunnel Project will start work on a 2.5-kilometre elevated veloway along Footscray Road to create a safe and easier passage for cyclists to and from the city, which will involve lane closures until mid-2024.
There will be further disruptions on the West Gate Freeway during March and April for asphalting works and the installation of overhead signage.
There will be disruptions as part of the Narre Warren-Cranbourne Road Upgrade, and overnight closures on the Princes Freeway inbound and outbound between the Healesville-Koo Wee Rup Road freeway ramps for the Pakenham Roads Upgrade.
