For the upgrades to the Eastern Freeway between Hoddle Street to Burke Road, we’ll build:

• 6 kilometres of new Eastern Busway lanes along the Eastern Freeway including access for local routes at Chandler Highway
• 4.7 kilometres of new and upgraded walking and cycling links including a new bridge over the Yarra River
• 6 kilometres of quieter road surfaces and 1.9 kilometres of new noise walls
• 6,000 new trees and 400,000 new plants
• 1 new lane each way from Chandler Highway to Burke Road
