THE intersection of Station Street, McLeod Road, and Nepean Highway in Carrum is set to receive a $3 million upgrade.

The level crossing at Carrum was removed in 2020, but safety at the intersection has been a concern ever since. In November 2020 a 75-year-old woman was killed in a car crash at the intersection of Station Street and McLeod Road.

After undertaking surveys and investigations in 2024, the intersection will be redeveloped. The federal government has put in $3 million for works. In a statement, Carrum MP Sonya Kilkenny said the project will include construction of a new left turn lane from McLeod Rd into Station Street, two right turn lanes onto Nepean Highway, and improved directional signage.

“It’s fantastic to have a partner in Canberra who is investing with us to ensure our growing community has the infrastructure it needs. Through this investment we’ll upgrade this key local intersection. More importantly, we’ll cut traffic and get locals home safe,” Kilkenny said. “Through the suburban roads blitz, we’re taking on the smaller projects that will make a big difference to local families, including here in Carrum.”

Dunkley MP Jodie Belyea said “this funding is ready right now to fix the issues at the intersection of McLeod Road and Station Street.” “The Albanese Labor Government continues to invest in roads and infrastructure in our community.” The state government allocated $750,000 in its 2023/2024 budget towards the Station Street and McLeod Road intersection upgrade.
