Major works are now complete, 7 months ahead of schedule
A big thank you to the community, traders and road users for your patience and understanding while major project works were carried out.
This significant road upgrade will remove bottlenecks, improve traffic flow and make journeys safer and more reliable for drivers, pedestrians, cyclists and public transport users in Melbourne’s growing southeast.
During works, we've:
- widened the Clyde Road overpass from 6 to 10 lanes
- added extra lanes to Clyde Road between Princes Freeway and Kangan Drive
- upgraded the Sir Gustav Nossal Boulevard and Kangan Drive intersections to reduce congestion
- built new and upgraded existing shared walking and cycling paths, including a new connection between Clyde Road and Kangan Drive
- added priority bus lanes to make your morning commute more reliable.
These upgrades have already improved traffic flow through the busy Clyde Road and Princes Freeway interchange, and made it easier to access to local schools, businesses and health facilities in the surrounding precinct.
Finishing works
Finishing works will continue until the end of 2026, including final landscaping, asphalting, line-marking and commissioning of new permanent lighting.
During this time, there'll be lane closures, reduced speed limits, and changed traffic conditions at times on Clyde Road and Princes Freeway while we complete remaining works.
Weather conditions may affect our progress, stay up to date on upcoming disruptions.
