Full steam ahead on Melbourne Airport Rail

A preferred bidder has been chosen to transform Sunshine Station in Melbourne into a six-platform transport superhub. The Network Integration Program Alliance, made up of CPB Contractors and SMEC, will deliver the Stage 1 works, due for completion in 2030. The upgrades include new regional train platforms, an extended concourse, new forecourts and an upgraded bus interchange. Three of five Stage 1 packages have already been awarded. Stage 2 works, which will extend the line to a new Keilor East station, start in coming weeks and are due for completion in 2031.

Bus reform urged for Airport Rail Stage two

Better Buses for Melbourne’s West said major party pledges show political leaders recognise infrastructure challenges in the west, but cautioned benefits will be wasted if locals cannot reach the station. Premier Ben Carroll and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese announced stage two of the project on 30 September.
