The level crossings at Bell Street, Munro Street and Reynard Street in Coburg and Moreland Road in Brunswick were removed in November 2020 by elevating a 2.5-kilometre section of rail.
New stations at Coburg and Moreland opened to passengers in December 2020.
As work continues on the landscaping and open space underneath the rail line, the car parks at both stations will open in early 2021. Bicycle parking at both stations, including the Parkiteer cages, will open in mid 2021.
The project will deliver new community open spaces, improved east–west connections and improvements to the Upfield Bike Path.

On behalf of the Victorian Government, the Level Crossing Removal Project is removing 75 dangerous and congested level crossings across Melbourne by 2025.
