Feedback sought on Black Forest Drive upgrade

Macedon Ranges residents can now provide feedback to help shape the intersection upgrade works at Black Forest Drive.

The state government has announced its intention to upgrade the road, to improve the location of pedestrian and cycling safety along the road which connects Macedon and Woodend.

The works are expected to begin next year and finish in late 2023.

Following an initial period of consultation, the state government is seeking further feedback on which areas along Black Forest Drive should be prioritised in the maintenance works.

Engage Victoria will also be hosting a webinar tomorrow night at 6.30pm to give further information and field questions from the community.

The event is free but registration is required.
