Overview

The Alliance’s commitments to sustainability are embedded in project contracts, plans and policies, as we strive to achieve an ‘Excellent’ Infrastructure Sustainability rating. The rating tool provides an effective way to guide and measure sustainability on infrastructure projects, by assessing environmental, social, economic and governance aspects.

The Project will remove the current Keon Parade level crossing by building a rail bridge over the road and building a brand-new Keon Park Station with modern facilities for passengers.

Elevating the rail line over Keon Parade will improve safety and reduce congestion for more than 18,000 vehicles travelling through the level crossing each weekday, with boom gates down for up to 41 minutes of the morning peak.

The architecturally designed, modern Keon Park Station will be built on the south side of Keon Parade and will benefit passengers and the local community through improved connections to local neighbourhoods, JC Donath Reserve, buses, local shops, cafés, and eateries.

The new station will have two entrances for convenient access, a central elevated island platform accessible via lifts and stairs, and two car parks on High Street and Keon Parade.
