  • Smart Traffic Lights
    GetVictoriaMoving.com.au GET VICTORIA MOVING Traffic light removal project INTRODUCTION Bottlenecks on our arterial roads are choking Melbourne and Geelong. That’s why I’ve developed a new plan to ease the squeeze on our most congested arterial roads. Everyone agrees the removal of level crossings will help to free up Melbourne’s traffic congestion, but it’s only part of the solution. Another key part is to remove Melbourne’s most congested and frustrating traffic intersections, using grade–separations. Preference for grade–separations will be an underpass construction with consultation with the community, local government and engineering experts, determining the final design. The grade-separation configurations will be a closed diamond model of intersection removal. These will not MATTHEW GUY MP be freeway style, clover interchanges. Leader of the Opposition As part of this project, traffic signal systems will be modernised to ensure traffic flow is optimised on corridors where intersections are removed. That’s why I’m committing between $4.1 billion to $5.3 billion to remove traffic lights from 55 of Melbourne’s busiest, most congested intersections. Recently released census data shows that 74% of Melburnians take a car to work every day. Despite the level crossing removal program’s benefits to traffic along Melbourne’s train lines, over one million people continue to sit in gridlocked traffic on other parts of the road network. That means tradies, couriers and salespeople are losing money while sitting in gridlock. It means mums and dads spending more time on their commute and less time at home with their families.
