Background

The Victorian Government’s Suburban Rail Loop (SRL) is coming to Kingston.

The SRL is a new 90-kilometre rail line that will connect Melbourne’s metropolitan train lines from the Frankston Line in the east to the Werribee Line in the west. The first stage of the SRL program is the south-east segment from Cheltenham to Box Hill.

Stage One includes a proposed new station at Sir William Fry Reserve in Highett and a proposed stabling yard in Heatherton, at a site commonly referred to as the 'Delta site'. While Council has called on the Government to reconsider, the SRL has announced it plans to use the Delta site for the proposed location for the SRL stabling yards. Council will continue to call on the Victorian Government to consider alternative sites for the stabling yards.

Initial and early works on Stage One from Cheltenham to Box Hill will get underway in 2022.

What is Council’s role?

Council is not responsible for planning this project or its delivery, however we are speaking up on behalf of our community to make sure we get the best outcomes for Kingston.

We need your input to help make sure this once-in-a-generation project is delivered with the best results for the community.


What do we want your feedback on?

We are currently seeking community feedback on design elements to be explored for the Cheltenham SRL precinct. We have some ideas about elements that should be considered by State Government and we'd like to know what you think. This includes how the areas surrounding the station will look and feel. You can view some of our ideas in the Document Library.

This particular piece of work will help guide Council’s position on the design outcomes that we advocate for at the Cheltenham SRL Station precinct.

What will we do with your feedback?

Your feedback will be used to help inform Council’s 'Design Advocacy Document' that will form part of our formal submission to the Victorian Government’s Environmental Effects Statement (EES) process. The EES is a process run by the Victorian Government that enables a detailed assessment of the potential environmental impacts or effects of a proposal. It includes consideration of effects on amenity, social wellbeing, business and economic wellbeing and impacts to the physical environment.

Our submission will detail all the things we’d like to see to ensure the success of the precincts for years to come.
