Trains will resume running on the Frankston line on Monday morning following the removal of level crossings at McKinnon, Ormond and Bentleigh.

The line was shut down between Caulfield and Moorabbin for 37 days to allow for round-the-clock construction works.

McKinnon station will open on Monday, but Bentleigh and Ormond stations will remain closed until late in August. The train tracks have been lowered to run beneath Centre, McKinnon and North roads.

Commuters have endured substantial delays in travel times, with buses replacing trains on the closed section of track.
