South Lake – Temporary Level Crossing Closure

The METRONET team have advised that as part of the Thornlie-Cockburn Link rail project, new rail infrastructure is being built within the existing freight rail corridor.

To allow some new signalling cable to be installed underground between Jandakot and South Lake, there will be a temporary disruption to the pedestrian level crossing near Little Rush Close and Meller Road, South Lake.

This is planned from 14 to 18 August 2023.

Please see the below map, showing the location of the temporary level crossing closure and nearest alternative level crossings.

For further information, please contact METRONET at [email protected] or 9326 3666 (business hours). Visit the METRONET website to stay up to date on infrastructure projects.
