Road Network Updates

Port of Melbourne will deliver a $21 million roads program over a five year period improving road user experience and increasing safety throughout each of the Port precincts. 

Following an extensive road audit in 2023 design development and delivery of improvement works will be rolled out in packages over a five-year period, through to FY29. 

Road safety is a key focus area for Port of Melbourne and these works aim to ensure our roads are safe and accessible for both passenger and heavy vehicle use.
