Flagstaff Station - Melbourne CBD

Location: William and Latrobe Street.
Opened: May, 1985.

Lying beneath William and Latrobe streets in the Melbourne CBD, Flagstaff station was the final station to be opened in Melbourne's City Loop, which runs around the city.

Flagstaff Station is unique in that it is closed on weekends, this is due to the fact that it largely services the legal district. The station has 3 underground levels, running to a depth of 32 metres. The top level features a kiosk and toilets, with 2 platforms on each of the two lower levels.

The station's name comes from the flagstaff erected in the nearby Flagstaff Gardens.
