The Department of Transport and Planning (DTP) has worked with Victoria Police to temporarily reduce the speed limit along a section of the Melba Highway outside Yering Station Winery from 80km/h to 60km/h.
This speed reduction will remain in place while they continue to investigate the site and undertake any necessary safety upgrades.
Everyone has a role to play in making sure our roads are safe, and the DTP encourages drivers to always obey speed signage, drive to conditions and remain vigilant when behind the wheel.
“We’ve temporarily reduced the speed limit along a section of the Melba Highway outside Yering Station Winery to keep all drivers and pedestrians safe,” a DTP spokesperson said.
“We encourage drivers to obey speed signage and drive to conditions as we continue to monitor the area and undertake any necessary safety upgrades.”
