By untangling the City Loop, the Metro Tunnel will benefit train lines across the network
By untangling the City Loop, the Metro Tunnel will benefit train lines across the network.
The Metro Tunnel will free up space in the City Loop to run more trains to and from the suburbs, by taking our busiest train lines through a new tunnel under the city.
That means more trains, more often across Victoria, with a less crowded and more reliable train network.
Work to build the massive 9km twin rail tunnels and five new underground stations is underway.
Flinders Street traffic changes
Traffic changes and major construction will start soon as works to build a Metro Tunnel station entrance at Federation Square get underway.
Archaeological digs
The state’s biggest ever archaeological investigation is underway in Melbourne's CBD. Visit Metro Tunnel HQ these school holidays to view some of our finds.
Rail infrastructure works
The final package of works for the Metro Tunnel to deliver Rail Infrastructure works including works at each tunnel entrance, has been awarded.
Creative Program
Artwork on our construction hoardings is one element of our Creative Program a seven-year program of placemaking, creative activities and events.
Five new stations
Five new underground stations will open in 2025. Explore the stations in our interactive map.
