Overview
The Suburban Rail Loop East Precincts Standing Advisory Committee was appointed by the Minister for Planning on 1 June 2025.
The Suburban Rail Loop (SRL) will deliver a 90-kilometre orbital rail line connecting Melbourne’s middle suburbs, linking every major train service from the Frankston Line to the Werribee Line via Melbourne Airport. SRL East is the first stage of the project being delivered from Cheltenham to Box Hill, with 26 kilometres of twin tunnels connecting six new underground stations at Cheltenham, Clayton, Monash, Glen Waverley, Burwood and Box Hill.
The Suburban Rail Loop Authority (SRLA) has prepared draft structure plans, implementation plans and planning scheme amendments for each SRL East Precinct – the neighbourhoods around the new SRL East stations at Cheltenham, Clayton, Monash, Glen Waverley, Burwood and Box Hill. These draft documents are available on the Engage Victoria webpage.
The Minister for Planning referred a list of general Issues common to all precincts to the Suburban Rail Loop East Precincts Standing Advisory Committee on 7 July 2025. The Committee will provide advice to the Minister on these general issues.
