Dynon Port Rail Link - Footscray Road Overpass

Background

Dynon Port Rail Link (DPRL) was a joint project of the Australian and Victorian governments. It involved the construction of a direct, uninterrupted rail link into the Port of Melbourne.

A 600-metre overpass, six-lanes wide, has raised Footscray Road over new railway lines. Two new dual-gauge main rail lines now connect the new port rail junction and the existing main rail line north of Footscray Road.

The Victorian Department of Transport (DoT) managed the project.
