Major works on $280M Hall Road Upgrade now complete

The Hall Road Upgrade in Victoria is now open, nine months ahead of schedule.

Motorists can now use 5.2 kilometres of new lanes and signalised intersections at McCormicks Road, Taylors Road, Western Port Highway, and Evans and Cranbourne-Frankston roads.

It’s estimated that 17,000 motorists will use the connection daily. Since construction began in 2022, the project has created more than 850 direct jobs and more than 42,000 tonnes of asphalt has been laid.

Final asphalting works will be completed in March, with minor close-out works underway until late 2024.

The Hall Road upgrade project was delivered by equal funding of $141.25 million each from the Australian Government and the Victorian Government.

The Hall Road Upgrade will build on improvements already delivered through the Thompsons Road and Hallam Road Upgrades, along with improvements on the Western Port Highway and Lathams Road – significantly improving safety and reducing congestion for the 112,000 combined motorists who use these roads every day.
