Overview

We’ve widened the road and built a second, 6 lane bridge next to the existing bridge, providing welcome relief for the 44,000 drivers who rely on this crossing every day.

As part of the upgrade we've:

• widened Chandler Highway to 6 lanes
• restored the Chandler Highway heritage bridge to a walking and cycling path and into its existing condition
• upgraded the Heidelberg Road and Chandler Highway intersection
• added new traffic lights at the Chandler Highway and Yarra Boulevard intersection
• built safer cycling and walking paths connecting to the Main Yarra Trail
• landscaped around the Yarra River
• improved stormwater drainage and lighting.
