Metro Tunnel Project – Cross Yarra Partnership

The Metro Tunnel will bring more trains to your suburb and reduce travel times by running the busy Cranbourne, Pakenham and Sunbury lines through a new tunnel. By untangling the City Loop, more trains can run more often across Melbourne through twin 9km tunnels, and with 5 new Train stations.

The Metro Tunnel will operate under the new High Capacity Signalling system that will enable turn-up-and-go services. The Metro Tunnel is currently expected to open in 2025 a year before the expected construction completion date.
