The scope of works for the Gippsland Line Upgrade includes second platforms and station amenity works at three stations along the line and reactivating the second platform at Traralgon, track duplication, level crossing upgrades for safety and reliability, improvements to signalling, train control systems and freight passing loops.
Revenue to UGL will be confirmed at contract execution.

Early works have commenced and the project is targeted for completion in late 2022.
