To create the space needed to build the Yarra Link Green Bridge and connect the tunnels to the Eastern Freeway, we will be building new lanes and a signalised intersection on Bulleen Road.

There will be disruptions on Bulleen Road in May and July between Thompsons Road and Manningham Road. Once complete, traffic will be moved to the permanent Bulleen Road lanes, with a new signalised intersection in place at the Veneto Club entrance.

Our priority is keeping you moving safely while we build a better road network. We’re working hard to minimise disruptions and will keep you updated as work progresses.

Dates are subject to weather conditions, we encourage you to stay up to date with traffic conditions via the VicRoads website or northeastlink.vic.gov.au
