Delivered by McConnell Dowell Decmil Joint Venture, the nine kilometre freeway will link the Mornington Peninsula Freeway at Springvale Road in Aspendale Gardens to the Dingley Bypass in Dingley Village, creating a continuous freeway from Frankston To Clayton.
Key features of the project include:
• bridges over Governor Road, Lower Dandenong Road and Centre Dandenong Road instead of traffic lights
• a bridge over Old Dandenong Road to keep it open for Dingley Village residents
• a twin bridge over sensitive wetlands to ensure rainfall and natural light reaches the vegetation below
• tall fences next to Braeside Park to protect local wildlife
• a wider pedestrian underpass at Braeside Park to improve connectivity
• a new intersection at Lower Dandenong Road so Woodlands Drive can remain open.
Although SC Comms + Utilities involvement ended in May 2020, the project is progressing well and is on schedule to be completed in late 2021.
