As of publishing, this crossing has been listed as one of the level crossings to be removed by the Level Crossing Removal Project (LXRP). This crossing will be removed alongside Champion Rd, Newport by means of a rail overpass.
The rail overpass will go over Maddox Rd, with through traffic at the Champion Rd level crossing being cut off, with it being diverted via a new link road from Champion Rd to Maddox Rd via Akuna Drive to maintain access. This is planned to be finished by 2026.
