The Synergy consortium has been selected by Major Road Projects Victoria to deliver the Eastern Freeway Upgrades project between Tram and Springvale roads.

The project, designed to reduce travel times and improve connections in Melbourne’s north east, will be delivered by consortium partners BMD Constructions, Arup and CIMIC Group’s CPB Contractors.

CIMIC Group executive chairman Juan Santamaría said: “These upgrades will be critical to providing greater access across Melbourne’s eastern suburbs, connecting into North East Link and the M80 Ring Road in Greensborough, reducing travel times for motorists by up to 11 minutes between Springvale Road and Hoddle Street, and upgrading pedestrian and cycling connections.”

With a focus on sustainable delivery, and utilising the latest in digital construction technology, we will continue to work closely with the Victorian Government and local communities to minimise disruption and maximise the design and social outcomes for the local people.”

The scope of works includes:

  • Adding new lanes and upgrading freeway ramps
  • Revitalising open space, including tree planting in Koonung Creek Linear Park
  • Installing traffic management technology to improve safety and traffic flow
  • Enhancing walking and cycling links, including a new pedestrian overpass at Eram Park

Construction is expected to be completed in 2028.
