The Victorian Government's North East Link Program has identified the need for a comprehensive upgrade of the Eastern Freeway to address existing infrastructure constraints. This upgrade involves significant modifications to the current freeway configuration, including major bridge upgrades, road improvements, and the construction of a new interchange connecting to the North East Link Tunnels.
The outcome of this project will be improved road connectivity, enhanced road user experience, and increased capacity for traffic flow. In addition, the development of new and upgraded walking and cycling connections and open spaces will contribute to the overall amenity of the area.
