The Level Crossing Removal Project on behalf of the Victorian Government is getting rid of the level crossing at Webster Street, Dandenong.
Removing this level crossing will improve safety for drivers, pedestrians and cyclists and prepare the area for future development.
It will also reduce road congestion and deliver a more reliable road network, better connections and travel times.
Technical and engineering assessments have determined the best solution for Webster Street is to close the road to vehicles at the level crossing and build a new road under the rail line, connecting Princes Highway-Lonsdale Street to Cheltenham and Hammond roads.
With the level crossing closed, fewer vehicles will travel on Webster Street and heavy vehicles will be moved away from residential streets and Dandenong CBD, making it quieter and safer for the people who live there.
This consultation is now closed.
