Planning update

Planning work is underway and key activities include:

• developing a project design
• detailed traffic analysis and modelling
• on-site investigations to test ground conditions and map utility services
• environmental investigations to understand flora, fauna and tree species.

Planning work will be used to inform the design, cost and timeline of the upgrade.

Site investigations

To help inform planning, a range of site investigations will be undertaken. At times, we may need to implement traffic control measures, including temporary lane closures, stop/slow traffic and reduced speeds. Traffic disruption will be kept to a minimum and busy periods will be avoided, where possible.

Community feedback

From 16 February to 8 March 2026, we asked for community feedback via Engage Victoria to help inform our planning. Thank you to everyone who took the time to provide feedback.

We’ll share a summary of feedback received in later in the year.
