We look after 465 kilometres of roads — making sure they are safe, accessible and meet the needs of our community now and into the future. Read on to learn more about the planned road upgrades during the 2025–2026 financial year.
Upgrades to roads across Glen Eira help protect the safety of everyone who walks, rides, drives, or uses mobility aids in our City.
In the 2025–2026 financial year, we’re resurfacing and repairing more than 23 streets under our Local Streets Improvement Project to ensure they’re safe and accessible.
As part of the program, other operational work, like footpath renewals, kerb and channel repairs, drainage cleaning and street signs repairs, will take place at the same time to minimise impacts on residents. To support a greener Glen Eira, where possible, we use sustainable and environmentally friendly resources and processes as part of our projects.
Footpath, kerb and channel repairs are happening in the below areas.
