THE intersection connecting Frankston-Dandenong Road to Lathams Road and Hall Road has reopened.
Motorists travelling through the intersection have had to deal with three months of lane closures while upgrades took place. The project will see the construction of extra through lanes and dedicated turning lanes onto and off Frankston-Dandenong Road.
Major Road Projects Victoria says that the project will save commuters five minutes. “Thanks to the additional capacity from the upgraded intersection, drivers heading to and from EastLink, Dandenong South, Cranbourne and Frankston are expected to save up to five minutes on their round trip in peak hour and have better access to local businesses and services in the booming Carrum Downs industrial area,” it said.
The project is expected to be complete in early 2023. The final layer of asphalt will be laid later this year.
