Developers are challenging the design of a new bridge for the Melton train line, which is part of a plan to remove four level crossings by 2026. They claim they were not adequately consulted. The developers own a large lot near Cobblebank station and want to renegotiate the bridge design that would elevate Ferris Road over the tracks. This court action may affect the project's timeline, although the government maintains it is on budget and ahead of schedule.
