The Department of Transport (DOT) has advised passengers to check station platform displays and listen for announcements, and to allow additional time for their journey.
Authorised officers will assist passengers changing between trains and buses at Laverton and Werribee stations.
Motorists have been advised to use Derrimut Road or the Princes Freeway and Forsyth Road instead of Old Geelong Road,
Technicians are working to resolve the issue at the crossing and restore normal service.
