One of the ways we're building a better Manningham is by improving our bus stops to increase the use of public transport.
This upgrade will make it easier to access the bus stop. It will also include a new shelter, giving commuters a safe place to wait, no matter the weather.
Where is it?
The bus stop is known as the Williamsons Road/Porter Street stop. It's located on Williamsons Road, Bulleen. You can find it behind 9 Hawtin Street.
When will the works happen?
These works will likely occur in the first half of 2024, pending weather and contractor availability.
The project will be delivered in two phases:
- Phase one: Civil works (footpaths/landings/ shelter foundations etc.,). This usually takes three to five days.
- Phase two: Shelter installation. This usually takes one to two days.
How will the works affect me?
During the works, commuters will need to use an alternative bus stop. Once phase one is complete, the bus stop will reopen for around a month. It will close for two days during phase two, while we install the shelter.
We will make every effort to minimise disruptions during construction.
