Vic Department of Transport Thousands of kilometres of Victorian roads are safer and more reliable thanks to a massive seasonal road maintenance blitz. Since September 2020, crews throughout Victoria have worked tirelessly to rebuild, repair, and resurface more than 2,430 kilometres of the road network, exceeding pre-blitz estimates and delivering more reliable journeys for local drivers, tourists, and freight operators. On top of this, maintenance crews filled more than 230,000 potholes, repaired, or replaced 41,000 signs and mowed more than 50,000 kilometres of roadside grass, as well as spending more than 5,000 hours responding to emergency callouts across the state. Across metropolitan Melbourne, works delivered on busy arterial routes include the Western Freeway, Mickleham Road, Frankston-Flinders Road and Old Dandenong Road.
