Macintyre Lane, Yering set for month-long partial closure due to works



Construction and road widening works are planned for a short section of MacIntyre Lane in Yering, for the implementation of various pedestrian improvements for the Yarra Valley Trail.

The section of the lane, located at the Melba Highway end is expected to be closed from 17 October to 25 November, with an expected entire completion date of 31 December. Detours will be in place throughout the construction period which will affect all through traffic, 24 hours a day, 7 days per week.

The works will include pavement widening, pedestrian and cyclist crossing, lighting improvement works, line marking and signage and will relocate existing car parking further south along Macintyre Lane.

This project is funded by the State Government in partnership with Yarra Ranges Council at a project value of $395,000.
