Installing ramps at Hoppers Crossing station as part of the Old Geelong Road level crossing removal is “not feasible”, according to the Level Crossing Removal Project (LXRP).
The level crossing at Old Geelong Road, Hoppers Crossing is being removed as part of a $355.5 million state government project.
The project will result in the existing crossing being closed to traffic and a new road built over the rail line, connecting Princes Highway to Old Geelong Road.
