We’ve widened this key arterial route from two to four lanes, making the 35km journey quicker and safer for up to 13,000 drivers every day.

The new highway has:

• new intersections
• two new bridges over the Geelong-Warrnambool train line – one of which removed a dangerous level crossing
• a new bridge over Barongarook Creek in Colac
• more than 120 kilometres of new safety barriers.
