Upcoming changed traffic conditions – Toolamba Road, Mooroopna
Greater Shepparton City Council wishes to advise of upcoming changed traffic conditions and speed reductions on Toolamba Road, Mooroopna.
As part of the GV Link Enterprise Project, the intersection of Simson Road and Toolamba Road will be upgraded to accommodate a B-Double-rated, single-lane, 80 km/h roundabout. These works will enhance the site’s connectivity and serve as a key gateway improvement.
Further notifications will be issued in the coming weeks detailing the construction schedule, duration, and any impacts to road users.
Subject to weather conditions and final approvals, works are scheduled to take place from Monday to Friday, between the hours of 7am and 7pm, and on Saturdays between 7am and 3pm.
Traffic management measures will be in place throughout the works, including speed reductions and shuttle flow operations on Toolamba Road. Access to adjacent businesses and properties will be maintained at all times.
For further information, please contact Council’s Projects team on 5832 9700 or email projects@shepparton.vic.gov.au

Saver Plus Back to School
What is Saver Plus?
Saver Plus is a program for people on lower incomes. It’s about bolstering their financial skills, so they can develop (and keep) good savings habits.
To help families start the year off a little easier, we are running a Back to School campaign to support parents to access an extra $500.
If parents commit to saving up to $50 a month for 10 months, ANZ will match it with up to $500. Participants can put that money towards education costs for themselves or their children.
And here are some school lunch box ideas...
