Anstey station is aMetro Trains Melbournerailway station on theUpfield line, part of theMelbourne rail network. It serves the northern suburb ofBrunswick inMelbourne, Victoria, Australia. Anstey station is a ground-level unstaffed station, featuring two side platforms. It opened on 15 December 1926.[4]

Initially opened asNorth Brunswick, the station was given its current name of Anstey on 1 December 1942.[4]

History

[edit]

Anstey station was renamed in honour of former member of parliament,Frank Anstey, who represented the local area in the seats ofEast Bourke Boroughs andBrunswick in the state parliament, andBurke in the federal parliament, between 1902 and 1934.[5]

In 1971, the station platforms were lengthened.[4] In 1998,boom barriers replacedinterlocked gates at the Albion Streetlevel crossing, at thedown end of the station.[6] Thesignal box controlling the level crossing was also abolished during that time.[6]

In 2020, the station became a temporary terminus whilelevel crossing removals occurred atCoburg andMoreland.[7] A temporarycrossover was provided at the up end of the station, to allow trains to terminate and return toFlinders Street.[4]

Future

[edit]

The station is slated for closure or relocation under theLevel Crossing Removal Project. The project intends to remove the adjacent Albion Street level crossing, as well as seven other level crossings in Brunswick, bygrade separation to become anelevated.[8] Under the plan, announced in 2024 and expected to be completed in 2030, the three nearby stations ofJewell,Brunswick and Anstey will be replaced by two new stations, each within 200 metres to 450 metres of one of the existing stations: the new northern station nearer Anstey is planned to be located next to Hope Street. Some heritage listed interlocking hand gates at some closed level crossings will be kept and located at their current spots.[9]

The decision to build two stations in different locations instead of rebuilding Jewell, Brunswick and Anstey generated criticism from residents and thelocal council. Local newspaper Brunswick Voice reported that the Minister for Transport Infrastructure,Danny Pearson, claimed "the decision to build two stations followed 18 months of technical and engineering assessments which found fewer stations would boost capacity on the line in the future and deliver more open space", noting that "the government claimed the plan would also minimise the impact to heritage in the area, but the politician provided no detail about whether the three station buildings and the historic boom gate operators' cabins would be preserved".[10]
