Project DescriptionThe Commuter Car Park Upgrade – Belgrave/Lilydale Lines – Heathmont project is expected to construct a multi-deck car park to increase the capacity of commuter car parking facilities at Heathmont railway station.
As the density of urban development continues to increase at a rapid pace, parking supply is under significant pressure with demand for railway parking at Heathmont station far outstripping supply.
This project is expected to support public transport usage and efficiency by improving park and ride facilities at this location.

- Improved efficiency and network reliability
- Reduced traffic congestion and improved travel times
- Supporting a more integrated and effective transport system
