Wangaratta Railway Station and Green Street bridge works June 2024
Inland Rail will continue construction in and around Wangaratta Railway Station and Green Street bridge during June.
Work being done
At the station precinct there will be drainage and utility installations, as well as works including excavations for the pedestrian stairs, ramp and lift shaft on the eastern side of the station.
A pump station for the pedestrian underpass will continue to be installed, along with stairs and fencing for the new western platform.
Works on the new Green Street bridge will include concrete strengthening for the east abutment and footpath retaining wall and concreting spaying (shotcreting) on the west abutment.
Construction of a crane pad and deck superstructure assembly area will commence, in preparation for the upcoming lifting of the new bridge structure.
What can I expect?

- Noise from construction machinery and equipment operating onsite
- Trucks and other vehicles entering and exiting the work site
- Ground excavations in various locations
- Approved vegetation removal within the project area including tree removal in Roy Street West

- Green Street bridge closed between Norton Street and Roy Street West, with detours in place
- Traffic management in and around Green Street, Cusack Street, Roy Street West, Spearing Street and Norton Street, when required which may cause minor traffic delays.
