Crews have filled in a missing link between 2 Greenvale residential estates in an exciting legacy initiative for the Mickleham Road Upgrade – Stage 1.
The project built the long-awaited road connection between the Aspect and Providence communities while continuing to work toward safer, more-reliable travel for Mickleham Road’s users.
The connection of Montenegro Road and Horizon Boulevard was delivered in direct response to community feedback, supporting the creation of a direct link between the estates.
Along with improving connectivity, the new road link provides important alternative access for emergency services vehicles, increasing the safety of residents in both estates. The connection of the estates reflects the goal of Major Road Projects Victoria (MRPV) to leave communities with long-lasting legacies beyond critical transport infrastructure.
The Mickleham Road Upgrade – Stage 1 has added lanes in both directions and upgraded key intersections between Somerton Road and Dellamore Boulevard. The project has also built sections of shared-use paths for pedestrian and cyclists, increasing active transport opportunities between Greenvale and Mernda.
Major works were completed in December 2024, delivering safer and more-reliable travel more than 6 months ahead of schedule.
Planning and development work is underway to inform Mickleham Road Upgrade - Stage 2, between Dellamore Boulevard and Craigieburn Road. The Federal Government recently announced an investment of $250 million to help deliver Stage 2.
