Melton City Council is running a campaign in the lead up to the Federal Election to get a commitment to upgrade the Western Highway. #nightmarecommute
Join us to sign the petition and urge the Federal Government to improve safety, reduce congestion, upgrade infrastructure and create local jobs.
We are seeking a commitment from the Federal Government to fund the following improvements:
- an interchange at Bulmans Road;
- an interchange at Mt Cottrell Road;
- a pedestrian overpass bridge at Arnolds Creek;
- removal of at grade access to the freeway;
- an overpass at Paynes Road; and
- an interchange at Harkness Road.
For information on why the upgrades are needed visit https://www.melton.vic.gov.au/Council/About-Council/Advocacy/Western-Highway-Upgrade
There are over 1750 people who have already signed the petition to date, and the council and community are looking for many more signatures to send a clear message to the Federal Government that these works are urgently required.
