Murphy Street Road Infrastructure - Design Phase

Murphy Street has been identified as in need of road and drainage upgrades, including a complete reconstruction of the road pavement, as the existing underground drainage system is inadequate to meet current and future needs.

Challenges at the Riverine Street intersection have been recognised, particularly for large vehicles. However, it is important to note that at this stage, we are solely focusing on designing the road infrastructure. The construction phase is subject to budget funding availability. Current intersections have posed safety concerns for some vehicles, while articulated trucks face insurmountable obstacles. Stay tuned for updates on the progress of the design phase and future construction plans.

Objective and scope

The scope of this project involves the development of design plans for a comprehensive overhaul of road pavement infrastructure, including a complete reconstruction of road surfaces, including the redesign of both Dawson Street and Riverine Street intersections to improve overall functionality and streamline traffic flow.

The design will include new underground drainage systems to enhance efficiency. Disability Discrimination Act 1992 compliant footpaths and kerb and channel features will also be integrated into the new design to ensure pedestrian safety and accessibility.

Consultation and community engagement

Once a design consultant has been engaged, updates will be provided in the section below. Please choose to follow this project to receive important updates directly to your inbox.

Funding

This project is funded by East Gippsland Shire Council. Funding has been allocated to design only at this time, the commencement of construction is subject to future budget availability.

    Further updates will be provided on YourSay following the Council Election on 26 October 2024, and the questions/feedback tab will be reinstated.

    From 12.00 noon Tuesday 17 September until 6.00 pm on Saturday 26 October (Election Day) we will be in the Local Government Election Period (also known as Caretaker Period).

    During this time, we will limit our printed communications, website content, social media activity, and community consultations. The ability for people to comment on our social media content will also be disabled during the Election Period.

    Each of these steps is to ensure our content does not affect voting in the election and is consistent with steps taken by other Victorian Councils and the Local Government Act 2020.

    These changes are only temporary; we'll be back to normal communication activity after the election.
