These works will lead to long delays and detours with drivers advised to seek alternative routes where possible.

Please note: emergency vehicles will be excepted during the Furlong Road closure on the night of Saturday 14 Jan. Due to the M80 Ring Road delays anticipated on the Sunday during the day, it is important that incoming emergency vehicles are notified of these works particularly if using Ballarat Road and or McIntyre Roads as we expect higher traffic volumes than usual, as we work to minimise Ring Road queues over Furlong Road.
