Victorian Government Level Crossing Removal Program
The Victorian Government is removing level crossings in Kingston as part of the Level Crossing Removal Program. The Level Crossing Removal Project (LXRP) has been established to plan and deliver these works, which include the removal of 21 level crossings and the construction of nine new stations across Kingston.
Council is not responsible for planning or delivering level crossing removals. However, we continue to advocate on behalf of our community to help ensure the best possible outcomes for Kingston residents, businesses and visitors.
For the most up-to-date information about individual projects, or to provide feedback directly to the LXRP team, visit the Level Crossing Removal Project website or contact their 24-hour helpline on 1800 105 105.
The following level crossings have been completed, are in construction or about to commence construction:
