Waurn Ponds train station


Waurn Ponds train station

Mr CHEESEMAN (South Barwon) (13:01): It was my pleasure two weekends ago to attend a community open day for the newly redeveloped Waurn Ponds train station. I had the absolute pleasure to attend that opening with about a thousand Geelong residents, particularly of course from Waurn Ponds, Grovedale and Armstrong Creek. This is part of the redevelopment of the Geelong train line, which will particularly see a redevelopment of Waurn Ponds station, Marshall station and South Geelong station and which will also see the duplication of the track through the southern growth corridor of Geelong. All of these investments will mean that we have a more reliable public transport system, because many of my constituents catch a train daily to work. The Waurn Ponds station is a key train station within that rail corridor, and I commend Rail Projects Victoria for that work.
