V/Line crews will carry out maintenance and upgrade works at Gisborne Station from 22 February to 4 March.
What we are doing
Crews will work around the clock to upgrade the existing culvert at Gisborne Station. A culvert is a structure located underneath the railway tracks that allows water to flow freely from one side to another preventing flooding and damage.
Works will include:
- Culvert inspections and repairs
- Level crossing surface renewal
- Drainage upgrade works
What to be aware of
During day and night works, there will be construction noise and dust generated due to the use of excavation equipment and the movement of machinery.
On 27 February, there will be significant levels of noise during the day between 11am and 6pm due to tamping and compacting works taking place.
Works during the night will also require additional lighting used around the site.
Roads around the station will not be closed, but there will be delays of up to five minutes at the level crossing at Station Road, Gisborne. Local detours and signage will be in place as required for community and worker safety.
The car park on platform 1 side of the station (accessed via Station Road) will be closed during these works for temporary staff facilities and to move machinery. Customers are advised to park on the platform 2 side of the station (accessed via Early Street).
