Project description

A $100 million package of improvements to cycling infrastructure will increase safety and connectivity, and deliver high quality, safe bike lanes and more priority routes in inner Melbourne, metropolitan centres and regional areas.

This package will improve the separation between cyclists and vehicles, give cyclists priority through intersections on key routes, widen off-road shared paths, develop new bicycle routes and complete gaps in existing networks.

The Government will shortly release a major Cycling Strategy which will outline a priority upgrade program, including completing missing links, increased separation of cyclists and vehicles on key routes and better off-road connections.

A package of improvements to pedestrian crossings on arterial roads has been identified with priority upgrades to be progressively delivered.
Project benefits

* Provide regional communities and visitors with safe off-road commuting routes between smaller regional communities and link key tourism locations
