Anzac railway station (originally known by the working title of Domain) is a railway station currently being built as part of the Melbourne Metro Rail Project. The station is named for the nearby Shrine of Remembrance and in honour of the ANZAC spirit of service and sacrifice.[1] It is being built using the cut-and-cover method. Construction on the station commenced in 2018. The station will open as part of the wider Metro Tunnel project in 2025.[2][3][4]

Location[]

Anzac Station will be built below St Kilda Road in the suburb of South Yarra, and is planned to feature four entrances.

Anzac Precinct[]

The station will also feature the first platform-to-platform connection between trains and trams in Melbourne, as half of all passengers are expected to interchange between the two modes of transport.[5]

During the construction period the Domain Road tram line, St Kilda tram line and Domain Interchange tram stop will close and experience short term closures.[6][7]
