The Leakes Road duplication will deliver two lanes in each direction from Tarneit Road to Derrimut Road, upgraded traffic lights and further works to improve safety and capacity along this busy road.
This project is currently in the planning and design stage – stay tuned for further updates.
Features
- Duplicating Leakes Road to two lanes in each direction between Tarneit Road and Derrimut Road
- Installing traffic lights at the intersection of Penrose Promenade and Crossway Avenue
- Upgrading and enhancing pathways to improve safety and accessibility for pedestrians and cyclists
Benefits
- Improved road safety: the duplication of Leakes Road and the signalisation of the intersection will significantly enhance safety for drivers and pedestrians.
- Reduced travel times: additional lanes and optimised traffic signals will alleviate congestion, leading to shorter and more predictable travel times.
- Increased capacity: the road expansion will boost the capacity of Leakes Road, accommodating the growing traffic volumes and ensuring the road network can support future population growth.
This important project is a key part of Wyndham City’s Connecting Wyndham program, which is creating a safer, more efficient, and connected transport network for residents and visitors alike.
