Installation of mini-roundabouts
- Project typeRoads, footpaths and car parks
- Project scheduleMarch - December 2025
We’re installing mini-roundabouts at several crossroad intersections across Monash.
This crash prevention initiative is funded by the Victorian Government through the Safe Local Roads and Streets Program.
Why mini-roundabouts?
Crossroad intersections have a higher incidence of near misses and crashes when motorists fail to obey ‘Stop’ or ‘Give Way’ signs.
Mini-roundabouts help improve driver awareness and better highlight the crossroad. Vehicle speeds are also slower at mini-roundabouts.
At some intersections we will be installing traffic islands and road cushions, rather than mini-roundabouts, as the intersection offset layout makes right turns difficult with a mini-roundabout. A central island would require vehicles to mount part of it to complete the turn, which poses a safety risk to the operation of the intersection.
What are we doing?
Construction of mini-roundabouts includes:
- Fully mountable central islands that allow access for emergency and waste collection vehicles
- Painted islands, and signs on the approaches to roundabouts
- Light coloured concrete for central islands to enhance visibility
- New pram ramps to improve pedestrian access for people with disabilities.
Possible impacts during construction
- Intersections will be closed to through traffic for the duration of the works.
- Parking in the close vicinity of work areas will be affected.
- Traffic management plans will be in place to safely detour vehicles and pedestrians around work areas throughout construction.
