And so it begins ...

I have lived in Reservoir all my life and the one question constantly asked during my school years was... "Which side of the line are you on?"

The Train line has divided the Suburb for 130 years and, for some it was very much a "Them and Us" attitude.

Construction on the Level Crossing Removal has begun with "Site Establishments, Geotechnical Investigations and Relocation of Services."
In other words they have erected a fence around some equipment and started digging holes in the ground.

And this will be our lot for the next Two Years while they build a new station and Sky Rail Bridge over one of the most congested road/rail Intersections in Melbourne.

Not too many Locals will be heartbroken over the rail going over the road.  If they provide a Sparkly New Station and Plaza anything like the Artists Impression

- We will ALL be very Happy!


And what makes ME happy is ... Where we live there are FIVE other ways home by Public transport that DO NOT involve going through Reservoir Station!
