not sure if im double posting but at the end of williams rd goin away from toorak rd , the curvy stretch that follows the yarra DO NOT stay in the left lane!! theres a deep fkuc off pothole right before the lights where the park is. its on the corner and theres no way of avoiding it. been down there twice yesterday and saw hubcaps flying!! the pot hole is about the same depth as a small road curb.....a definite rim killer.!!

Every day on the way to work I gotta drive at about 30k's an hour over this poor excuse for a road. I can't put on my r33 series 2 front lip on cos there would be nothing left of it when i got home. (its for sale)

Malvern: Corner of Glenferrie rd & princess highway on the in bound side. The tram tracks have turned it into a motorcross track!

Armadale: Corner of Orrong & princess hwy. (just at start of orrong)

[pushead]

Toorak Rd : I think they have fixed Toorak Rd. I travel on it everyday and they filled the holes up. Still, the tram tracks arent good for the wheels

[pushead]

South Eastern Freeway

Before Foster Rd Exit (Under The Bridge:

Middle lane has huge port holes made from trucks. Do not travel on the middle lane, either left or right.

[fattdex]

Do you mean Forster road exit pus?

[pushead]

yer, Forster Rd Exit.. did I say foster? lol.... somehow it came up on my mind..

Area: St. Albans -> Deer Park

Furlong Road - The whole road is full of pot holes, dips and one set of railway tracks.

Area: Laverton

Fitzgerald Road - This whole road is also full of pot holes and a set of train tracks.

Area: Laverton

Boundary Road - One of the worst roads around, lots of pot holes and patching due to lots of trucks. You can't do the 90km/h speed limit as it will trash the front of your car.

Furlong Road - The whole road is full of pot holes, dips and one set of railway tracks

yeah I'm moving near there and with the coil overs I could really feel those bumps

[Jamezilla]

Area: Richmond

Street: Cremorne St (parallel to Punt between Swan and FWY)

Detail: Lets just say the Lada would have trouble here. The whole street is a 4WD test track. Is not only being resurfaced - but seems to be completely redone from scratch. It looks like an archalogical dig. AVOID AVOID.

Yeah its bad, my gf lives near there...

Area: Laverton

Fairban Road - Near Geelong Road the left lane is "split" that is the left side of the lane is a lot lower than the right. It will scrape the bottom of your car.

Area: Maribyrnong

Williamson Road - If you are going to Highpoint try to avoid this road. It is full of bumps and has a set of tram tracks that are like a rally jump.

Area: Sunshine

Hampshire Road - From Sunshine Road to the overpass the road is full of pot holes and is steep towards the gutter, you need a Hummer to drive down this road...

That part of hampshire road has been like that for at least 20 years - tightarse bloody council / govt

very soft around the edges that road.

Area: Balaclava / Caulfield

Hotham Street - between Dandenong road and Nepean hwy [long stretch] This road has lots of potholes, tram tracks and what I would call ski slopes at the edges, if your suspension is good you may enjoy it but if your ride height or front bar is low you may lose it. Its particularly bad at each side street. If you drive down this road you will know what I mean

[dAVE]

i drive down hotham road everynow and then and never noticed a prob.. same with toorak road.. used to drive down every day... my suspension is so hard every road in melb is ***t.

[riggaP]

Doncaster Rd North Balwyn

The entire section between Bullen Rd and Balwyn Rd is atrocious. Feels like you're driving on corrugated iron.

yes but did you drive down the LEFT lane of Hotham STREET ? That's what I am talking about...its a clearway during afternoon peak, other times there are usually cars parked there anyways...

Area - Noble Park

Location - Noble Park Maccas

Dont attemp to drive out of the carpark onto elanora road if your car is lowered, it will scrape all the way down.

[chopobo]

i think most people know that ****in dip on princess highway going up to the city when you pass caulfield campus

mmz

glenwaverly station the rear car park! the bitumen looks flat at night but its actually a small ramp. went up at at 40k and put two nice cracks in the front bar and my indicator fell off. even driving going up or down it scraps. very evil place.

elder st in clarinda? dunno what the construction guys have been doing but they completely ***ked up the road, now theres patches of uneven surface road all up the street. they just made it worse
