In addition to this the project as a whole would need to include the following:<br />
<strong>Final</strong> <strong>Stage</strong> 1 Feasibility <strong>Report</strong><br />
A <strong>Rowville</strong> rail line concept<br />
Integrated design of coordinated bus feeder services and bus stop facilities<br />
Passenger access provision in line with the latest Disability Discrimination Act (DDA)<br />
requirements (including lifts, ramps and stairs)<br />
Provision for secure bicycle parking and adequate bicycle access paths<br />
Well-designed and safe pedestrian access, especially in the environment of Wellington<br />
Road<br />
Use of sustainable design, materials, energy use and other factors as an intrinsic part of<br />
the project<br />
Overall, the rail line and its facilities would need to be designed to the latest industry<br />
standards and to cater for long term future demands.<br />

Figure 17 shows some illustrative cross sections of how the rail line might look where it<br />
would be above or below ground, or in a ‘retained cutting’ open to the air above. There are<br />
extensive lengths of retained cut, tunnel and elevated structure.<br />
