Landslip works – Great Ocean Road
13th May 2026
We’re delivering landslip geotechnical works on a section of Great Ocean Road, between Kennett River and Grey River.
The project will stabilise the road and minimise the risk of landslides to protect the longevity of the natural roadside landscape and improve safety for all road users. The works involve removing unstable material, reconstructing the site, restabilising with new material and constructing an underground retaining wall.
The Victorian Government has invested $255 million to the Great Ocean Road and its inland routes. This includes $115 million to upgrade inland routes between the Great Ocean Road and the Princes Highway, which are vital connections for tourism, freight and local communities.
When to expect us
Works are expected to begin from 21 May and take approximately four months to complete. Crews will be on site from Monday to Friday, between 7am and 6pm, with the possibility of weekend work.
Please note: dates and times are subject to change due to site and weather conditions.
