Inland Rail: Albury to Illabo Project Update

The Albury to Illabo project is about 185km of existing rail corridor from the VIC/NSW border to Illabo in regional NSW.

The rail line in this section is already at the standard required to meet future operational demands, but we need to make enhancements or modifications to structures such as footbridges and road bridges, signal structures, aerial cables and level crossings to create the height and width (horizontal and vertical clearances) required for double-stacked freight trains. In addition, there will be locations where existing tracks will be: ™ moved sideways (track slews) to provide clearances between tracks and lowered to provide clearance under some road bridges.

Find out more about where the project is up to and what’s coming next.
