About the project

We've upgraded the junction of John Rice Avenue and Haydown Road in Elizabeth Vale, as part of an election commitment to improve safety and access in the northern suburbs. 

What we did

The upgrade included:

• installation of traffic lights at the junction to improve safety for all road users

• a new dedicated right turn lane onto Haydown Road to improve traffic flow

• new and upgraded LED lighting to improve safety

• new kerb and gutter

• new and upgraded road surface and new line marking

• retention of the existing pedestrian actuated (push-button) crossing east of the junction on John Rice Avenue.

This upgrade will also help support growth in the Lyell McEwin health precinct.
