SRL Tunnels South change of scope

I recently had the chance to go past the area where they are currently building what will be the train stabling yard, and the location for the launching of the tunnel boring machines… As I drive down the old dendenong Road, before I came to Kingston Road, I was surprised to see there was more engineering work occurring in the large area on my left and next to the Dingley bypass …. see map…

I was not aware that this land was part of the SRL project…?

and further with this announcement…

Does this mean mean the tunnel boring machine launch site shall be on the block of land next to the dingley bypass, and then will they freeze the land underneath Nellie Kelly Passionfrust Nurseries on the corner of Kingston Road and Old Dandenong Road so as to ultimately connect the the tunnels to the stabling yard? 

Any ideas? “
