Donnybrook Road Upgrades Stages 1 and 2

The Donnybrook Road Upgrades Stages 1 and 2 will improve safety, reduce congestion and improve traffic flow.

Stage 1 will:

• remove the existing roundabout and install traffic lights at the Donnybrook Road and Mitchell Street intersection
• construct a new bridge over Kalkallo Creek.

Stage 2 will:

• construct a new bridge over the Hume Freeway
• widen Donnybrook Road from two to four lanes between the Hume Freeway and Dwyer Street
• add an extra right-turn lane to the Hume Freeway outbound exit ramp
• build a walking and cycling path on the northern side of Donnybrook Road between Polaris Road and Dwyer Street.

Stages 1 and 2 are in pre-construction phase.

Initial planning work for future upgrades to Donnybrook Road between Mickleham Road and Epping Road has been completed. Planning identified that the road should be upgraded in stages.
