Seven level crossings to go this winter
bigbuild.vic.gov.au
A massive construction blitz over the winter months will see 7 dangerous and congested level crossings gone for good, and Melbourne will get its first boom gate-free rail line.

From the LXRP page:

From 9pm, Friday 17 May to early June, buses will replace trains between Berwick and Pakenham, as a crew of 200 work around the clock to demolish the existing Pakenham Station and finish the elevated 2.5 km rail bridge.

When trains return in early June, the level crossings will be gone, and the new Pakenham and East Pakenham stations will open to passengers.
