One of the ways we're building a better Manningham is by improving our bus stops to encourage greater use of public transport.
This upgrade will make the bus stop safer and more comfortable for you. The upgrade includes a new shelter, giving commuters a protected place to wait in all weather.
Where is it?
This bus stop is located at 348 Thompsons Rd, Lower Templestowe - Bus Stop ID 5537.
When will the works happen?
Works are scheduled to begin Monday 16 February to Friday 13 March 2026, pending weather and contractor availability.
The project will be delivered in 3 phases:
- Phase 1: Remove the existing bus shelter. Usually takes one to 2 days.
- Phase 2: Civil works (footpaths, landings, shelter foundations, etc.). Usually takes 3 to 5 days.
- Phase 3: Shelter installation. Usually takes one to 2 days.
How will the works affect me?
While works are underway, please check the latest service updates and alternate stops on the PTV app or Transport Victoria website.
We will make every effort to minimise disruptions during construction. Once phase one is complete, the bus stop will reopen for around a month. It will close for two days during phase two, while we install the shelter. We will make every effort to minimise disruptions during construction.
