The Andrews Labor Government has announced funding for the ‘Brightening Bentleigh’ project, improving perceptions of safety and community confidence in the Centre Road shopping strip and nearby laneways.

Member for Bentleigh Nick Staikos said the new route will unlock access to Chadstone Shopping Centre, Glen Eira Sports and Aquatic Centre and Holmesglen TAFE and Hospital for residents of Moorabbin, Bentleigh and East Bentleigh.
