Completion
The opening of the Station Street bridge in September 2018 marks the first stage of works to transform Carrum into a safer, better connected community, with the removal of three dangerous and congested level crossings in the area to follow at Mascot Avenue, Bonbeach and Station Street and Eel Race Road in Carrum.
By connecting McLeod Road to the Nepean Highway – creating a more direct road network – the Eel Race Road level crossing can be closed.
The closure of the Eel Race Road level crossing will improve safety for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians and reduce rat-running through local streets making them quieter and safer. A new walking and cycling underpass will be built at the existing Eel Race Road level crossing site to ensure locals have safe access to the beach.
For more information about the project, drop in to the Carrum info hub located next to the Carrum Life Saving Club, in Old Post Office Lane.
