Roxburgh Park Gets Station Upgrades, New Sports Precinct, Road Works

Roxburgh Park Station upgrades include glass panel shelter walls, improved lighting to the bus exchange and extra bike hoops, with installation targeted for completion by end-June 2025. These works form part of ongoing efforts to update local transport infrastructure.

Why station and road changes matter for daily travel

Residents rely on the station for train and bus connections. The planned additions aim to provide more shelter and visibility at the bus exchange while adding bike storage. A separate road project, the Roxburgh Park Drive Duplication covering a 1.6km section between Donald Cameron Drive and James Mirams Drive, was completed in November 2020 at a cost of $6 million to address traffic volumes exceeding 22,000 vehicles daily.

Recreation facilities updated with council and state funding

The Roxburgh Park Pavilion Upgrade at Lakeside Reserve was completed in October 2025. It received $500,000 from the Victorian Government and $1.75 million from Hume City Council to deliver female-friendly change rooms and accessible amenities. These improvements expand options for local sports and community use at the reserve.

New development adds housing and open space

Peet Limited’s Roxburgh Park Arena development includes $14 million allocated for Aitken Boulevard construction between Somerton Road and James Mirams Drive plus $6.5 million for a 10-hectare sports precinct. The project supports 500 new properties. AreaSearch has identified eight major projects affecting the suburb, among them the Upfield Line Extension to Roxburgh Park and Craigieburn, the Somerton Intermodal Terminal and the Halcyon Highlands over-55s community.

Local residents can track progress on these works through Hume City Council project pages and state infrastructure listings. Further updates on timing and access will be released as each stage advances.
