Road safety upgrades planned for Mernda intersection

The City of Whittlesea will upgrade the Bridge Inn Road and Sackville Street intersection in Mernda to improve safety for motorists and pedestrians.

The work will include the installation of traffics lights, asphalt upgrade, the realignment of the footpath and new street lighting.

The works are scheduled to start by early November and will take approximately three months to complete. The majority of the works will be undertaken during the December school holidays to minimise disruption.

During construction, Bridge Inn Road will remain open. However, there will be no entry and exit to/from Sackville Street via Bridge Inn Road. A local detour will be provided via Heddle Street and Wellington Street.
