14 April 2026
We're upgrading the Eastern Freeway with new express lanes, new traffic management technology, Melbourne's first express busway and a seamless connection to North East Link.
We'll close the Eastern Freeway in both directions between Bulleen and Tram roads over a weekend each month between April and June to asphalt new freeway lanes.
Additional weekend freeway closures will take place throughout 2026 and we'll notify you beforehand.
Delays of up to 60 minutes are expected during peak travel times.
We encourage motorists to plan ahead during these closures, seek alternative routes and allow extra time
Schedule is subject to change. Visit our disruptions map for schedule changes. For more information call 1800 105 105 or visit the Hub at 284 Doncaster Road, Balwyn North 3104.
