November 27th, 2025Improving road safety for motorcyclists
The federal and state governments are improving road safety for motorcyclists by rolling out projects across Victoria to make sure some of the most vulnerable road users get home safely.
The Motorcycle Safety Infrastructure Program will deliver eight life-saving projects under the Road Safety Program to help reduce the likelihood and severity of motorcycle crashes.
Crews will install new motorcyclist friendly barrier treatments, improve signage and seal dangerous intersections.
The first stage includes $10.6 million to deliver eight projects across the Gippsland, Hume, Loddon Mallee and Greater Melbourne regions.
These works will be carried out across Victoria at:
- Licola Road near Heyfield, Glenmaggie and Licola
- Willowgrove Road near Trafalgar, Willow Grove and Hill End
- Mirboo North Trafalgar Road near Trafalgar
- Broadford-Flowerdale Road near Strath Creek
- Whittlesea-Yea Road near Yea
- Granya Road near Bullioh and Granya
- Mansfield Whitefield Road near Mansfield and Whitfield
- Old Sale Road, Shady Creek.
This is being delivered through a joint investment of $5 million from the federal government’s Road Safety Program and the $5.6 million state government through the Motorcycle Safety Levy.
This year 54 motorcyclists have lost their lives on Victorian roads.
