The Narre Warren North Road Upgrade project team has been busy over the last month getting ready for the start of major construction in January.

In December, asphalt works for the U-turn at Belgrave-Hallam Road will be completed, with safety barriers removed and closed lanes reopened for the holiday break.

December works will also include continuing non-destructive digging to locate underground services and begin the process of relocating services, applying temporary line marking to guide drivers safely through the work zones, completing temporary asphalting works at Fox Road and near Memorial Drive to enable safety barriers to be installed and building the site compound.

Most works will take place between 7am and 6pm from Monday to Friday and 7am to 1pm on Saturdays.

Some works may need to be undertaken at night to minimise impacts on traffic or utility services.

Notice of night work will be given to the public in advance.

Throughout December, road users may experience traffic changes and minor disruptions on Narre Warren North Road.

Changes will include reducing speed limits from 80km to 60km between Fox Road and Belgrave-Hallam Road for the duration of works and implementing temporary lane closures and speed limit reduction to 40km during working hours.

The Narre Warren North Road Upgrade project team thanked the community for their understanding.
