Have your say on the Sunshine superhub

Brimbank locals can have their say on plans for the new Sunshine Superhub.

As part of the superhub project, Sunshine station will receive major upgrades to extend the rail network to the Melbourne Airport and other areas in the western suburbs.

Laverton MP Sarah Connolly invited locals to participate in an online survey to provide feedback on the project.

“Planning consultation is now open, and this is your chance to help shape one of the biggest transport projects in Melbourne’s west,” she said.

“We’re seeking feedback on things like the project boundary, heritage and environmental impacts, tree removal, traffic, and construction concerns.”

A series of works is planned across more than 6km from West Footscary to Albion.

These works will include new rail bridges within the Tottenham rail corridor, and two new regional platforms and an extended concourse at Sunshine station.

There are also plans for new and upgraded tracks, new signalling technology, and realigned passenger and freight trains.

The state government has also said the superhub project will pave the way for more train services in Melton and Wyndham Vale further into the future.

Works for the superhub are expected to start early next year and are projected to finish in 2030.

The survey can be accessed on the Engage Victoria website. Submissions for feedback close Sunday, July 27.
