Consultation Open For Five Ways Intersection Safety Improvements

VIC Premier

The Albanese and Allan Labor Governments are upgrading the Warrandyte Five Ways intersection to improve road safety for thousands of local drivers each day while cutting congestion, as part of their joint Road Blitz.

From 17 November to 7 December 2025, Big Build Roads is seeking community feedback to help shape the design and planning for the upgrade of the Ringwood-Warrandyte Road, Croydon Road, Husseys Lane and Brumbys Road intersection.

More than 8,000 vehicles use the intersection daily, and the upgrade aims to make it safer and more efficient for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians.

Community input will help Big Build Roads understand how people use the intersection and what improvements are most needed.

Planning is already underway, including traffic analysis, design development and on-site investigations to better understand local conditions.

Temporary lane closures and reduced speed limits may be required at times, but traffic disruption will be minimised wherever possible.

Initial planning is expected to be completed in 2026.

Residents and local businesses can have their say by visiting engage.vic.gov.au/warrandyte5ways by Sunday 7 December, or by speaking directly with the project team at the Riverlea Estate cellar door, 485 Ringwood-Warrandyte Road, Warrandyte, on Sunday 30 November from 10am to 3pm.

As stated by Victorian Minister for Roads and Road Safety Melissa Horne
