Diggers Rest level crossing removal

Josh BULL (Sunbury) (15:44): It was sensational to join the Premier and the Minister for Transport Infrastructure on Sunday to mark the 86th level crossing removal in our state. The removal of the level crossing at the Old Calder Highway is a game changer for our local community. The brand new road bridge, Golden Way, opens tomorrow. I want to take the opportunity to thank every single worker who has played a critical role in delivering this project, as well as of course the community for their patience during construction.

This project builds upon significant investment within the growing Diggers Rest community: removing level crossings, upgrading Diggers Rest Primary School and significant upgrades that have been delivered to the Diggers Rest Recreation Reserve.
