The VicRoads Major Projects Division is now a new dedicated authority; the Major Road Projects Authority (MRPA).
MRPA will act as a new Administrative Office under the Office of the Coordinator-General and began operations on 1 July 2018.
As part of the creation of the Major Road Projects Authority, the delivery of major road projects currently being delivered by the Major Projects Division of VicRoads will be transferred to the new authority.
The change comes in an effort to bring a more integrated approach to project delivery across the broader Victorian transport portfolio.
VicRoads will continue to have a central role in the Victorian transport network through operating and maintaining a high performing metro, suburban and country road network, its critical registration and licensing functions, and assisting Transport for Victoria with road system planning.
