Came across this via a link from a triathlon site:
Bicycle Victoria has initiated discussions with VicRoads and other State Government agencies to upgrade the surface of the boulevard in the future as well as seeking regular road closures for cycling events. http://www.bv.com.au/bikes-and-riding/40016/
The bit about road closures for cycling events caught my eye. Anyone know if there are events planned? Come on Dutch you're sure to know something??
regarding he surface, there's a thread on BV forums...
road closures? Kate and Belinda's department. I know it's on the wishlist Been too busy having 'discussions' re surface...
I heard from a source in VicRoads that they don't want to re-surface it because motorists go too fast on there as it is...if the surface gets improved, there will be more spills and accidents...

Oh my god, motorists exceeding the speed limit. Better put out some Road Revenue Cameras. That is the solution everywhere else rather than limiting the surface quality.
