How about the road from Mt Dandenong to Heidelberg? It has this sort of delightful scenery and is about as wide, but is a “popular back road” to the Dandenongs for Melbourne’s weekend tree hugging set. It’s as busy as Bourke St, after knock off time on Friday…

I live in Victoria WHY HAVENT I HEARD OF THIS ROAD
@canadianentropy10 жыл бұрын
Wow! What an amazing road! But two things come to mind: 1) I didn't see very many pull outs for passing and 2) the loose rock on the road indicates that it's seriously unstable in rainy conditions.

Your right. No pull outs and unstable conditions!

wow now thats an odd road to be called "main" indeed. Imagine how slippery it must be in heavy rain and you are screwed when meeting another car!
@GoJoGeoff10 жыл бұрын
You are right Yoz, passing other cars was trouble - we only met one (with no camera going) and it was scary!

Curious to know just how much of the road is tight and windy. I'm guessing the parts through farm country aren't all that bad. I also guess that around Little River Gorge would be a bit treacherous.

+Ian Smith The Eastern approach to the bridge is the worst. School buses etc operate on the west side but not the eastern.

Do you think you could travel on this road in a 8metre long 18 ton truck. Bridge limit says 20ton. I'd be nervous as hell.

Hi Geoff, very impressive this road without protection, the wooden bridge would not seem very safe. Thanks for tour. Giorgio
@GoJoGeoff10 жыл бұрын
Thank you Giorgio. When driving on these roads and bridges it did not feel safe. Geoff

Did it once and once was enough. Passing sometimes requires one vehicle backing up to a bend where it's a bit wider.

Yes we met one car, and they had to back up - was scary!

This is one of your best rides. I was just thinking this is not a motorcycle road and there comes one. I like the short section of guard rail, like you especially don't want to fall off there. Very nice Geoff, Mike

Thanks Mike, yes that small section of rail was amusing. I didn't see the point lol
