A construction method called ‘bottom up’ will be used to build Parkville Station, which involves excavating the box down to its maximum depth, construction and fit out of the box, followed by the installation of mechanical and electrical equipment required to operate the station.

Excavation is expected to start in December 2018 and continue until December 2019.
