Maintenance works are now complete on Warburton Highway in Wandin North as part of the Andrews Labor Government’s road maintenance blitz.

Minister for Roads, Road Safety and the TAC Jaala Pulford said this $462,500 investment will help motorists who travel along this section of the Highway enjoy a smoother and safer journey.

The 200 metre section of Warburton Highway at the Wellington Road intersection has been structurally restored including asphalting and repainting road markings.

Across greater Melbourne, the Labor Government has delivered $125 million of maintenance works during the 2019/20 financial year.
