A NEW underpass at the Tullamarine Freeway and M80 Ring Road Interchange is now open to drivers.
VicRoads M80 Upgrade Director Trevor Boyd said it would mean drivers on the M80 Ring
Road heading to Pascoe Vale Road would now exit the Greensborough bound carriageway at the interchange and travel on dedicated lanes through the underpass.
“Once drivers take the exit, they are committed to going to Pascoe Vale Road as there is no opportunity to get back on the main carriageway,” said Mr Boyd.
“This is a really important safety improvement as it will reduce unnecessary weaving and merging which is a frequent cause of accidents and the changes should also lessen congestion.”
