Mountain Highway Intersection Upgrade Update

Upcoming Roadworks at Mountain Highway, Colchester Road & Albert Avenue Intersection

The team have been hard at work upgrading the Mountain Highway, Colchester Road, and Albert Avenue intersection in Boronia to improve traffic flow and pedestrian/cyclist safety. The project will include new traffic signals, additional lanes, and safer crossings, with completion expected by mid-2025.

The power is yours!

You might have spotted us bustling around the intersection yesterday, where we wrapped up some major power infrastructure upgrades! This important work sets the stage for the exciting next stage of the project lined up during the upcoming school holidays.

Colchester Road facelift

From Friday, 20 September to Monday, 7 October, we will work around the clock (except 27-28 September) to remove the top road layer on Colchester Road, lay new foundations, and install temporary markings and a temporary roundabout.

There’ll be a full closure of Colchester Road between Mountain Highway and Beresford Drive between 8pm and 6am, and a partial closure, allowing northbound traffic only on Colchester Road between 6am and 8pm. There will be no impact to any bus routes during these preliminary works.

Below are the detour maps during this period:

 A peak at the future!
Once the entire project is complete next year, here’s a sneak peak at what the ultimate intersection design will be — think safer crossings, improved traffic flow, and a fresh new look!
