Lialeeta Road, Fairhaven
Landslip Repair Works: Great Ocean Road, Fairhaven (near Lialeeta Road)
We're responding to erosion and damage along the embankment near the recently installed underground pit and pipe section on the Great Ocean Road, just west of the Painkalac Creek Bridge.
A void has also formed next to a grated pit on the northern side of the road.
Further cracks and gaps have been identified along the embankment east of Lialeeta Road, indicating some movement and potential instability in the area. Please keep clear.
What we're doing now (work to start 2 July):
- Installing temporary fencing along the footpath (east of the bus stop) to keep pedestrians safe. At least 1.2 metres of the path will remain open for access.
- Cleaning up gravel and sediment that has washed onto the path.
- Filling in the void next to the pit.
Next steps:
The fencing will remain in place, while we develop plans for a longer term solution, including revegetation of the embankment.
