Strong progress for SRL East - The Terra Verde joint venture team is taking huge strides at the Suburban Rail Loop East project, with major milestones achieved at both the Burwood, Mount Waverly and Glen Waverly sites.

Take a look at the progress here!
 
At Burwood, construction continues to build momentum with piling works now completed, excavation advancing and key infrastructure being prepared ahead of tunnelling.
 
Meanwhile, the team has completed the primary steel frame for the Mount Waverley Emergency Support Facility's acoustic shed and commenced piling works at Glen Waverley to support the future station box, alongside the opening of the new Myrtle Street East carpark.
 
A big well done to everyone on site for their continued commitment to the safe delivery of this transformative project for Victoria.
 
Webuild, as part of Terra Verde Joint Venture, is delivering the excavation of two parallel tunnels for nearly 10 kilometres between the future stations of Box Hill and Glen Waverley, the creation of 39 cross passages between them; two station boxes, two TBM launch sites, and one intervention and ventilation shaft.

About the Project

Webuild, as leader of the Terra Verde Joint Venture is delivering the contract to design and construct the Tunnels North contract of Suburban Rail Loop (SRL) East, a project that will transform public transport in Melbourne amind strong population growth in the coming years.

Commissioned by Suburban Rail Loop Authority, the contract entails the excavation of two parallel tunnels for nearly 10 kilometres between the future stations of Box Hill and Glen Waverley; the creation of 39 cross passages between them; two station boxes; two tunnel access shafts; and one intervention and ventilation shaft. The tunnels will be excavated using tunnel-boring machines (TBMs).

Suburban Rail Loop is a 90-kilometre orbital rail line that will help transform the way Melbourne grows, delivering more public transport and more homes. The first stage, SRL East, is now under construction, with tunnelling to start in 2026 and trains taking passengers in 2035.
