I'm working on mapping out major highways/freeways in VIC, showing their evolution and history over time. Detailed mapping of every section built, duplicated and bypassed.
The maps will be accompanied by historical content, photos, videos etc.

I've started with the Hume. Mapping is complete, the "story" with content is in progress (will be a separate web page).
You can check out the map now, click anything to see the details. Open the Layers panel to toggle things on/off and watch it grow to dual-carriageway from Melbourne to Wodonga.
Backed up by studying aerial photography from 1940 onwards to confirm exact routes, I'm reasonably confident in the accuracy, but let me know if there's any major issues.


Also working on
- Calder Hwy
- Western Hwy
- Princes Hwy East
- Princes Hwy West

Hey Ben,

Great to see some deep Victorian content.  Looking forward to reading all the "stories". :-)
