A Berwick resident says leaving the upgraded O’Shea Road without permanent lighting is a safety issue.
Helen D’Amelio said parts of the road were left “really dark” and wanted to push the State Government to take action.
“It should be brought to light,” she said.
“Is it a funding problem?”
Crews have been completing finishing works since opening new and upgraded lanes along O’Shea Road as part of Stage 2 of the Monash Freeway Upgrade
A Major Road Projects Victoria spokesperson said they were working towards turning on permanent lighting soon.
“We’re working with our construction partner, CPB Contractors, and AusNet to turn on the permanent lighting along O’Shea Road in the coming weeks,” the spokesperson said.
“We’ve installed temporary lighting and kept the speed limit at 60km/h to ensure the safety of motorists, pedestrians and crews while these final works are carried out.”
