Locals to have their say on Narre Warren Station upgrade

The State Government’s Level Crossing Removal Project is encouraging community engagement; inviting Narre Warren locals to have their say about what is important to them regarding the Webb Street Level Crossing Removal Project and new Narre Warren Station.

Engage Victoria is asking locals to submit feedback on desired improvements for the Narre Warren Station precinct, including their thoughts on the ‘look and feel’ of the station and details about the way they use the area.

The ‘Webb Street vision, values and early design concept survey’ is available on the Engage Victoria website, and will be open until 11.59pm on Sunday 27 March.

Engage Victoria is hoping the feedback will help “deliver a project that reflects what locals love about the Narre Warren area.”

In addition to the online survey, locals can submit hard-copy recommendations within the same time frame, or can engage in one of a number of virtual consultations to give feedback.

The online consultations are being held on Saturday 19 March from 10am to 11.30am and Tuesday 22 March from 5pm to 6.30pm.

To sign up, visit Engage Victoria.

The project is part of a State Government initiative to replace 85 ‘dangerous’ level crossings, to improve safety and reducing road congestion.

The removals will create a ‘level crossing-free’ Pakenham line, with plans for the Webb Street level crossing to be removed by 2025.

It will be replaced with a ‘rail over road design solution’, with designs for the anticipated rail bridge released earlier this month.
