What we’re doing

We’re delivering vital maintenance works on approximately 1.3 kilometres of Warrigal Road in Oakleigh South between The Links Shopping Centre and Birdwood Street.

The works will involve replacing layers of the road, asphalt resurfacing and line marking to restore the condition of the road surface.

When to expect us

Works are expected to take place from Wednesday 13 May to Thursday 4 June 2026.

Works will take place under nightly road closures to minimise traffic disruption and to keep our crews safe. Crews will work between 10pm and 5am, Sundays to Thursdays. No works will take place on Friday and Saturday nights.

The road will reopen every morning from 5am. Dates and times are subject to change due to weather conditions and the contractor’s program of works.

What to expect during night works

A nightly road closure on Warrigal Road between Centre Road and North Road. Detours will be in place via East Boundary Road, North Road, Huntingdale Road and Centre Road. Crews will work along one section of Warrigal Road at a time.
Access to The Links Shopping Centre will be maintained.
No parking on this section of Warrigal Road.
Medium to high levels of noise when crews remove the surface layers of road. Low to medium levels of noise are expected during all other works. Crews will schedule the noisiest works in the earlier part of the shift, where possible.
Crews use modern equipment to keep noise to a minimum, however the works will unavoidably emit some noise and light. For the safety of road users and workers, reversing beepers are required on all machinery.
Some vibrations and dust around work areas while we remove the existing layer of the road, lay new asphalt, and reinstate the road.
Periods where there may be restricted access to residential properties and businesses along Warrigal Road. We will contact affected property owners and work to maintain access.
A five-minute delay when moving through the area. Please plan ahead and allow extra travel time.
Reduced speed limits to ensure the safety of crews and road users.
Emergency service vehicle access will be maintained.
