Ballarto Road from Skye will close in both directions between Potts Road and the Western Port Highway for two weeks this month, as crews conduct asphalting works.
Signed detours will be in place until Sunday, 25 May, using Potts Road, Cranbourne-Frankston Road, Western Port Highway, Hall Road and Frankston-Dandenong Road.
The road will reopen with a reduced speed limit when works are not occurring between 7pm Fridays and 7pm Sundays.
Access to residences and businesses within the closed section of Ballarto Road will remain available under the direction of traffic management.
During this closure, crews will be constructing new road shoulders, replacing layers of the road, asphalt resurfacing and line marking.
Nearby works on Ballarto Road, Carrum Downs, will continue until mid-May with some lane and overnight road closures in place.
According to the Department of Transport and Planning, the Ballarto Road Upgrade will improve safety for all road users, including pedestrians, as well as improve traffic flow and provide greater capacity for current and future road traffic volumes.
