This $80 million Wyndham City project will deliver the Ison Road extension, which will connect the existing Ison Road Overpass with the Princes Highway (Geelong Rd), helping residents get home sooner and safer.
This priority Connecting Wyndham project will significantly improve connectivity, catering for almost 30,000 daily journeys to help meet Wyndham West’s growing transport needs.
VIDA Roads is delivering this project on behalf of Wyndham City.
Features
A 1.3km, four-lane road between the Ison Road Overpass and an upgraded intersection at Geelong and Wests roads
New walking and cycling path connecting to existing paths on Ferntree Drive in King’s Leigh Estate and Geelong Road to boost local active transport opportunities
Two bus bays near the upgraded intersection to cater for future public transport routes in Wyndham’s west
These works are expected to be complete by the end of 2026.
