The state government is rolling out a major road maintenance blitz to rebuild, repair and resurface roads across Victoria, including in the Macedon Ranges. Roads and Road Safety Minister Melissa Horne launched the $976 million road maintenance blitz in Kyneton, where crews will begin fixing potholes and upgrading road surfaces across the state. As part of the blitz, crews will begin delivering hundreds of major maintenance projects between now and mid-2026, with 70 per cent of all the funding going towards regional roads. Regionally, the program will tackle the Western Highway, Princes Highway East, Princes Highway West, Hume Highway and Calder Highway. Crews will also mow, slash and spray tens of thousands of kilometres of roadsides, inspect and repair thousands of bridges and other structures.
