Significant works are planned throughout autumn on Victoria’s rail network.

Works will add more services, remove level crossings and improve facilities for regional passengers.

Victorian Transport Infrastructure Minister Danny Pearson announced a large package of works that will take place in the state’s north-east.

“We are getting on with delivering vital infrastructure that will better connect regional Victoria with modern and more reliable transport,” he said.

“These critical works will help deliver more trains, more often across regional Victoria.”

Works will impact passengers in Shepparton and Seymour for over a month, with coaches replacing trains between the two towns and some trains between Southern Cross and Seymour from March 9 until April 14.

Passengers planning to travel during these disruptions should allow up to 60 minutes extra for their journey and check the temporary coach replacement timetable before travelling, which will be available from the V/Line and PTV websites closer to the start of the works.
