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 in a boost for 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, boosting 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.
