We’re building the new M80 Ring Road Interchange in Greensborough and Watsonia North, with express lanes to the North East Link tunnels.
We’ve started building the new M80 Ring Road Interchange in Greensborough, with express lanes to the North East Link tunnels and connections for local trips.
We’re removing the traffic lights at the existing M80 Ring Road intersection to ease congestion and slash travel times.
The new interchange will seamlessly connect the M80 Ring Road to the Greensborough Bypass, an upgraded Greensborough Road, and will add express lanes to the new North East Link Tunnels in Watsonia.
The M80 Ring Road Interchange design minimises the height of ramps and overpass bridges to mitigate visual and noise impacts to the residents.
Five new lanes and smart technology from Plenty Road to a new M80 Ring Road Interchange will also deliver faster, safer trips for drivers.
Works in the area will increase significantly as we continue to build the new interchange and extra lanes on the M80 Ring Road and Greensborough Bypass.
What’s coming up?
To support ongoing works on the M80 Ring Road and Greensborough Bypass, we’ll be working overnight and on weekends in September.
These works will involve realigning the M80 Ring Road between Plenty Road and Greensborough Bypass to make room for the new interchange and additional lanes.
During this period, there will be changed traffic conditions, including lane and road closures at times on:
- M80 Ring Road between Plenty Road and Greensborough Bypass
- Greensborough Bypass between Grimshaw Street and Civic Drive/Diamond Creek Road roundabout.
What's next?
Later this year, the way you travel on M80 Ring Road and Greensborough Bypass will change. Drivers will use newly built roads for the first time along the M80 Ring Road and Greensborough.
We’ll have clear signage and road markings in place to guide you. Please look out for destination signs earlier on your journey.
Following September works, we’ll complete works later in 2025 along the M80 Ring Road Greensborough-bound to make room for new work areas and to move traffic onto new lanes between Plenty Road and Greensborough Bypass.
