Missing Link South Melbourne
09-May-2022: Given that Metro Tunnel was performing evaluation of subsurface utilities in Park Street back in February 2022, I thought I'd have a look and record the existing scene in Park Street in that 290m section often called the "missing link".
There are persistent rumours that as part of Metro Tunnel works (?) in that part of South Melbourne the missing link will (finally) be constructed between Kings Way and Heather Street and an east-to-north curve at Park and Clarendon Streets to enable route 5 to be diverted (Malvern to where?) up Clarendon and Spencer Streets.
This is the site of the "missing link": a mere 290m of non-track-laid street. Looking east from the roundabout at intersection of Heather and Park Street, in the distance one can see an inbound B2 on a route 58 service turning from Park Street into Kingsway. In the foreground the tracks curve from Heather Street at left into Park Street carrying route 1 trams between South Melbourne to East Coburg.
