Roadworks along Kilmore-Lancefield Road in Kilmore are in their final stages and are expected to be complete by the end of September.
The works, between Kulin Drive and Church Street, have been ongoing for the past few months but were suspended due to inclement weather conditions.
Parking on the north side of Kilmore-Lancefield Road has been blocked off for several weeks despite the footpath appearing finished, frustrating Kilmore Primary School parents.
Department of Transport regional director Steve Bowmaker said the shared path was almost complete and only needed a few touches.
“Recent wet weather has resulted in work being paused and we plan to recommence as soon as conditions allow,” he said.
“The new shared path on Kilmore-Lancefield Road is nearing completion, with final asphalting works, line marking and grass seeding still to take place.
The State Government has spent $865,000 to deliver a walking and cycling space and an improved pedestrian crossing near Kulin Drive.
The school crossing has been moved further away from the intersection of Church and Sutherland streets.
Other works include a safety barrier opposite the Conway Street intersection to protect path users.
