We've removed the dangerous level crossing at Ferguson Street by building a new rail trench under the road, making way for a new North Williamstown Station and an upgraded precinct for the community to enjoy.
Construction to build the new North Williamstown Station, as well as landscaping and finishing works will continue through to 2022.
For regular information about the progress of this project, sign up for email updates.
On behalf of the Victorian Government, the Level Crossing Removal Project is removing 85 dangerous and congested level crossings across Melbourne by 2025.
