Gap Road Project
The November hearing session will examine events at the Gap Road Project in Sunbury, delivered for the State by the Rail Infrastructure Alliance.
The project involved the removal of a level crossing and the construction of a new rail bridge and underpass as part of the Sunbury Line Upgrade.
Planning for the project began in 2019 and works were completed in 2023.
This hearing session will focus on events during the rail occupation in June 2022.
This will include, but is not limited to:
- what led to the stoppage of work on 6-7 June 2022
- a meeting at the CFMEU’s offices on 7 June 2022 after which work resumed
- the arrangements made following this meeting
- what the arrangements cost, who paid for them and what the State knew and did
- the appointment of health and safety representatives, how they were chosen and what work they did
- the changes of labour hire and traffic management providers, how they were selected and engaged
- any wider campaigns about traffic control on other projects and what the State knew and did in response.
