UrbanLeap comprising of (Gamuda Engineering, Keolis Downer, Siemens, AECOM, GHD, Hyundai Rotem and Downer Rail) is one of two shortlisted consortia developing its detailed proposal for the delivery of the Suburban Rail Loop - SRL East Works Package G.

The contract is expected to be awarded in 2025.

The first stage of the Suburban Rail Loop - SRL East - is a fully-tunnelled 26-kilometre metro corridor between Cheltenham in the South and Box Hill in the North. The line will include six stations, including new interchanges with existing heavy rail stations at Cheltenham, Clayton, Glen Waverley and Box Hill, with new stations at Monash and Burwood.

Suburban Rail Loop (SRL) will transform Victoria's public transport system connecting our suburbs and creating opportunities in great places.

The 90-kilometre SRL will link every major rail line from the Frankston line to the Werribee line, via the airport, better connecting Victorians to jobs, retail, education, health services and each other.

It will ease congestion and take pressure off the existing transport network and the project will generate a long pipeline of work and construction activity, creating up to 24,000 jobs across the economy during construction.

As well as delivering significant transport benefits, SRL provides an opportunity to plan the services, amenity and infrastructure we're going to need outside of the CBD for future generations.

SRL will be delivered in stages over several decades, with SRL East between Cheltenham and Box Hill now under construction. Initial and Early Works for SRL East started in 2022, paving the way for the main works packages to begin in 2025.
