As construction of a new Bulleen Road interchange continues as part of Victoria’s Big Build, there will be various Eastern Freeway traffic disruptions this month and throughout 2026.
Crews are working to build elevated ramps that will connect the Eastern Freeway to the North East Link tunnels. This will require a full weekend closure of the citybound lanes on the Eastern freeway between Doncaster Road and Bulleen Road from 10pm, Friday February 6 to 5am Monday February 9.
Various citybound entry ramps will also be closed to help ease traffic congestion.
Among these is the Bulleen Road citybound exit ramp, which will be closed from 9pm, Wednesday February 4 to mid-March to complete critical 24/7 works, including starting to build a new shared path underpass and new noise walls. Delays of up to 20 minutes are expected during this closure.
