Upcoming stormwater installation works and closure of Dacakis Lane in Sunbury will be taking place Monday, February 28 to Monday, March 7 as part of the Sunbury line upgrade.

Works will include non-destructive digging to gauge whether the area is free from underground services, trenching to allow stormwater pit installation and saw cutting of asphalt and concrete.

The works will take place Monday, February 28 to Monday, March 7, 2022, 7am to 6pm from Monday to Friday, and 7am to 1pm on Saturdays.

A media release from Rail Projects Victoria said the works are expected to generate medium levels of noise and vibration, with periods of high-level noise.

“A section of the outer eastbound lane on Station Street will be closed during works and a pedestrian diversion in place,” it said.

Dacakis Lane will be closed at Station Street and vehicles will be directed to enter or exit Dacakis Lane via Brook Street.

“Signage and traffic management will be in place to assist road users entering and exiting the lane,” the media release said.

“Traffic controllers will be present to manage access for pedestrians and local residents around the area, as well as to assist with construction vehicle movements around the site.

“There will be an increase in construction vehicles travelling on local roads to access the site,” it said.

Water will be used to keep dust down.
