Major works in Winter 2023

As part of the West Gate Tunnel Project, we’re widening the West Gate Freeway from 8 to 12 through lanes and building new connections to the city and CityLink to make it easier and quicker to get around.

This winter, we will be carrying out a series of complex structural works, affecting how you’ll get to and from the city.

Detour maps for drivers, pedestrians and cyclists

Getting to Marvel Stadium for events

Access to Marvel Stadium car parks is accessible from the south (Bourke Street to Dudley Street) and will be maintained on event days.

More information will be made available closer to date to allow drivers to plan their journeys.

Delays of up to four minutes are expected.

Residents and businesses

Local access will be maintained during the Wurundjeri Way overnight closures.

We understand that works will be disruptive and will impact residents and local businesses.

If you have any particular concerns or need further information, please reach out to us via our Call Centre, 24/7, at 1800 105 105 or email us at info@wgta.vic.gov.au
