Improvement to tunnel vision
Over four nights, 1066 high pressure sodium (HPS) lights were replaced with 1174 LED lights.
Up to 60 technicians and 22 scissor lifts worked through the night to remove the old HPS lights and install the new LEDs.
The toll road operator says the replacement LEDs are brighter and whiter than the orange HPS lights.
“The upgraded lighting will improve safety for motorists, by making the driving task easier,” EastLink corporate affairs manager Doug Spencer-Roy said.
Operators in the EastLink control room were benefiting from an improvement in the quality of CCTV images.
EastLink incident response and emergency service personnel would also benefit, as brighter, whiter lighting would make the management of incident sites easier.

Brush-ups revive tollway’s artworks
Public Art Strategy is adjacent to EastLink southbound just before the Dandenong Bypass interchange.
THREE of the most recognisable artworks along the 39 kilometres of the EastLink tollway have been renovated and restored.
The collection of public artworks includes 12 artworks along the tollway and shared use path.
EastLink says the artworks set among 480 hectares of landscaping are “arguably [form] Australia’s largest sculpture park”.
“EastLink’s much-loved art collection cost $5 million when the artworks were commissioned and acquired shortly before EastLink opened in 2008, so it’s important they are maintained properly,” The company’s corporate affairs manager Doug Spencer-Roy said.
