Jumping Creek Road Upgrade

The Jumping Creek Road upgrade project is a major project to reconstruct the full length of Jumping Creek Road from Ringwood-Warrandyte Road in Warrandyte to Homestead Road in Wonga Park.
The Jumping Creek Road Development Framework was endorsed by Council in 2016.
The first section of the road to be reconstructed is between Ringwood-Warrandyte Road and Nelson Drive in Warrandyte. Planning for this section of road is now complete and construction works started in April 2020

Jumping Creek Road
Jumping Creek Road is an important local link road that carries more than 8,100 vehicles per day, with the traffic volume expected to double to 15,000 vehicles per day by 2035.
Jumping Creek Road connects Ringwood-Warrandyte Road in Warrandyte to Homestead Road in Wonga Park, as well as surrounding suburbs and the tourist destinations of the Yarra Valley and the Dandenong Ranges.
Between January 2009 and December 2013, a total of 17 crashes resulting in casualties were reported at Jumping Creek Road, including one fatal crash.
The Jumping Creek Road upgrade will deliver safe, sustainable, functional and site responsive infrastructure that protects and enhances the local landscape.
Jumping Creek Road Community Reference Panel
In January 2017, Council established a Jumping Creek Road Community Reference Panel, which consists of both residents and relevant local business and community group representatives.
The panel is an opportunity for Council to provide updates, highlight issues, respond to queries and share ideas with the community and to receive feedback on proposals about the design and reconstruction of Jumping Creek Road.
The panel also considers issues previously raised by the community during the consultation process for the Jumping Creek Road Development Framework.

Stage 1 design underway (Ringwood-Warradyte Road to Jumping Creek Bridge)
Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Linkedin Email this linkThe preliminary design for the Stage 1 works has been completed in consultation with the Jumping Creek Road Community Reference Panel. A planning permit application for Stage 1A is due to be submitted in February 2018. This is required for vegetation removal, construction of retaining walls and a pedestrian path along this section of Jumping Creek Road.
Construction of Stage 1 will be undertaken in the following stages:
- Stage 1A (commencing June 2018): Ringwood- Warrandyte Road to Nelson Drive (subject to planning approval)
- Stage 1B (commencing in early 2019): Nelson Drive to the approach of the Jumping Creek Bridge
Staging of the works is necessary to ensure that works affecting traffic are limited to minimise impacts during the fire danger season.

Thank you to everyone who provided feedback on the provision of a footpath on Jumping Creek Road between Yarra Road and Homestead Road. The survey closed on Wednesday 15 November.
The options for consideration include:
- The retention of the existing gravel path along the north side of Jumping Creek Road in its current form
- Construction of an asphalt path on the south side of Jumping Creek Road
- The upgrade of the existing gravel path along the north side of the road to a maximum width of 1.5m, subject to vegetation impacts.
The footpath is a key action of the Jumping Creek Road Development Framework that was adopted by Council in late 2016.
