Sunbury Road works
Melbourne Airport is making changes to Sunbury Road at the north of the airport. These roadworks are in preparation for construction of the third runway, to allow for safe entry and exit of trucks and vehicles onto airport land.

A reduced speed limit of 40 km/h will be in place for safety throughout the entirety of the construction period. Please follow posted signage and drive with care through the construction zone. Please plan ahead for your journey and expect delays. | ||||||||||
