Level crossing closed

The Koolewong level crossing was closed on November 10 and 11 as part of CityRail's $6.2 million track and infrastructure upgrade.

Services were affected on the Northern, North Shore, Newcastle and Central Coast and Hunter lines last weekend, including the level crossing at Koolewong.

Limited pedestrian access was provided at the crossing, while motorists were directed to use the rail bridge at the corner of Glenrock Pde and Brisbane Water Dr, Tascott, to cross the rail line.

RailCorp representative Mr Owen Gill said the upgrade would help increase capacity and improve passenger access and comfort on the rail network.
