A new section of trail along the Dandenong Creek is now open to riders.
The 266-metre section runs alongside the creek through Woodcock Reserve and under the Cranbourne and Pakenham rail lines and into Dandenong’s centre.
To keep a sense of the natural environment as the creek runs through the industrial precinct, the shared user path features a boardwalk built around a large river red gum.
The project has been delivered as part of the Webster Street level crossing closure and new road underpass to connect Princes Highway-Lonsdale Street to Cheltenham and Hammond roads.
The level crossing project is untangling road routes around central Dandenong at the same time as removing barriers and risky crossings from the bike network around the city, while also setting up opportunities for further links and expansion.
