We’re upgrading Doncaster Park and Ride and connecting it to Melbourne’s first dedicated busway to reduce travel times and improve public transport in Melbourne’s east.

To create safe entry and exit points and stop cars driving through the bus platform area, we’re making some changes to how cars and buses will use the new-look Doncaster Park and Ride. These changes will also help ease congestion at the High Street and Doncaster Road lights.

To keep park and ride traffic off surrounding streets, there will be changes to local road access at the corner of Hender Street and Finlayson Street.

Car park exit and Drop and Go zone on Hender Street

New traffic lights on Doncaster Road and one-way access at the corner of Finlayson Street will keep park and ride traffic off local streets nearby.

Cars exiting the car park or using the Drop and Go zone will use the new lights at Doncaster Road.

Separating park and ride traffic out over the High Street lights and new Hender Street lights will also ease pressure on the High Street lights and improve traffic flow on Doncaster Road.

In response to community feedback, the Drop and Go zone was simplified for improved traffic flow and pedestrian safety.
