The Victorian Government committed $30.5 million to build new bike lanes that physically separate drivers and cyclists to make St Kilda Road safer.

The St Kilda Road Bike Lanes project involved:

• building separated kerbside bike lanes with bike markings along St Kilda Road
• installing coloured bike lane surfacing at conflict points, and bike boxes and bike lanterns at traffic light intersections to provide better visibility and priority movement for cyclists
• modifying traffic signals to provide additional priority for cyclists
• removing kerb outstands to allow for continuous bike lanes
• resurfacing existing bike lanes to improve safety and comfort
• construction of DDA-compliant pedestrian crossings at some key intersections.
