Clyde Road Level Crossing Removal

Project Overview

The Level Crossing Removal Project was a program from the Government of Victoria, Australia, to remove 85 level crossings in Melbourne. The Clyde Road Crossing removal led to improved safety and traffic flow at the level crossing at Clyde Road along the Pakenham line.

This was achieved by building a road underpass beneath the rail line in February 2022. This was the 12^th of 22 level crossing removals on the Pakenham line, and the 58^th of the 85 dangerous and congested level crossings across the state that will be gone for good.

Bus interchanges at Berwick Station were upgraded, and new walking and bike riding connections created.
