ReFocus Club Melbourne Inc. Tracksuit Pants and Pearls. The freeway was originally shown in the Melbourne Transportation Plan as part of the F9 and F14 Freeway corridors. The initial section of the Mulgrave Freeway was opened to traffic in , [4] with bi-directional interchanges with Heatherton and Stud Roads. Later in the s and in the early s it was progressively extended Eastward to Forster Road - with additional interchanges at Blackburn, Ferntree Gully, Wellington and Jacksons Roads and eventually Police Road during the early to mid s - then to Huntingdale Road, and finally to Warrigal Road in Chadstone.
Construction at the Hallam end extended underneath an interchange at the Princes Highway and southwards along the old alignment of the South Gippsland Highway to the interchange with Dandenong-Hastings Road, now the Westernport Highway at Lyndhurst; this section was initially named the Eumemmerring Freeway, but later named the South Gippsland Freeway. At this time the Tullamarine Freeway also carried the Freeway Route 81 route shield.
This was due to the Melbourne Transportation Plan having the two freeways linked to each other from around East Malvern at the Mulgrave Freeway end and at Flemington at the Tullamarine Freeway end , sweeping through the St Kilda area. The plan never came to fruition, but the two freeways have since been linked by the West Gate Freeway extension and the CityLink project. The freeway was eventually further extended east from Burnley under the MacRobertson Bridge along the Yarra, to Toorak Road, with a single-carriageway feeder road taking excess traffic to Tooronga Road.
Part of the road still exists along the Home Hardware store which can be seen from the Tooronga road overpass of the Monash Freeway. The first and second stages were completed in Initially designated State Route 80 in the s, it was later signed as Freeway Route 80 until , when the South Eastern Arterial was completed.
Motorists had to rely on inadequate feeder roads to connect between the two freeways. Construction on a dual-carriageway at-grade road link between the two freeways began in the mids. This road assumed the National Route 1 route number from the Princes Highway , which became an alternative route. The project attracted a great deal of controversy just before it opened and well afterwards: in order to save costs, only one freeway-style interchange had been constructed underneath High Street in Glen Iris. Every other interchange with major roads along the route Toorak, Burke, Tooronga and Warrigal Roads was an at-grade intersection controlled by traffic-lights, and because the road was constructed through residential areas, reduced speed limits were also enforced.
This led to heavy congestion, frequently kilometres long, on the freeway, fuelling anger and frustration, and even attracting a rather-apt moniker of "the South-Eastern Carpark". With a change of government several years later and a lot of political showmanship, more money was poured into the link road, constructing underpass interchanges at Toorak and Burke Roads and just an underpass at Tooronga Road. The improved road dramatically improved the rate of outbound traffic, however the bottleneck at the Swan Street Bridge still remained and the queues only got longer.
A portion of the Monash Freeway at the city end from Toorak to Punt Roads was eventually incorporated into the CityLink Toll road project in the late s by way of tunnels underneath the city to link to the eastern-end of the West Gate Freeway , allowing for an uninterrupted voyage past the CBD. Before this bypass was constructed, the sweeping curve of the freeway at the Hallam end that became the South Gippsland Freeway had its capacity reduced from three lanes to two, resulting in a notorious bottle-neck at peak hours, especially for outbound traffic exiting at the Princes Highway interchange outside Dandenong; the extension finally bypassed the entire problem.

The Monash Freeway was extended by 7. This omission causes unnecessary congestion on neighbouring roads as northbound South Gippsland Freeway traffic must exit the freeway at Princes Highway only to join the same freeway again from Belgrave-Hallam Road eastbound. The construction of the bypass also included the Hallam Bypass Trail shared path. In , the state government announced a major upgrade widening the lanes from Glenferrie Road through to Heatherton Road. Prior to this, over , vehicles per day used this freeway resulting in congestion during peak hours.
The upgrade started in late and was completed in The freeway officially begins at the southern end of CityLink , at Toorak Road.
Here the freeway is five lanes wide. The opposing carriageways of the freeway are relatively near to each other and are separated by a concrete barrier. This section has overhead lighting.
This first section of freeway runs through the south-eastern suburbs of Malvern , Glen Iris and Malvern East. After Warrigal Road , the freeway is built within a much wider road reserve, allowing for a wide grass centre median with steel barrier separating the carriageways. This section does not have overhead lighting and carries four lanes on each carriageway.
This section runs through south-eastern metropolitan Melbourne, including the suburbs of Chadstone , Mount Waverley , Mulgrave , Dandenong , Hallam , and finally, Narre Warren , where it becomes the Princes Freeway. The final section, the Pakenham bypass, is the newest stretch of the Monash Freeway, and has two lanes in each carriageway.
The M1 route also carries the recently developed VicRoads Traffic Management System which included Freeway On-Ramp metering with road loops and signals , over-head speed limit and lane signs and electronic message boards; there are also various CCTV Cameras and Traffic sensors to monitor traffic flow and conditions constantly. Electronic 'Estimated Travel Time' boards are also used in conjunction with the sensors. The usual peak period travel time with traffic congestion is between 45—70 minutes. Some of the slowest intersections at these times include the EastLink interchange and the South Gippsland Freeway interchange.
In times of extreme congestion, possibly residual traffic due to an incident, the travel time can quickly increase to as high as minutes. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
