Australia .Starting at the intersection with .
Historically before the reconstruction and extension works, Westall Road ran as a semi-major road from just south of the Dandenong Rail line at Westall Station to Heatherton Road, and as a minor road from the railway line to Centre Rd. The previous thoroughfare consisted of taking McNaughton Road, Kombi Road and Rayhur Street.
The extensions north to Princes Highway and south to Springvale Road were designed to reduce traffic which travels through Springvale via Springvale Road, as it has a 70 km/h speed limit for most of its length in which it is bypassed as well as having a reduced 60 km/h limit through the Springvale shopping area with this dropping to 40 km/h during school times. Traffic is further delayed by the
level crossing adjacent to Springvale Station, and the particularly slowSpringvale Junction . The upgrade of Westall Road has allowed north-south through traffic to avoid this area.Anticipated Future Extension
* Westall Rd to be extended from Princes Highway at Clayton to the M1 Monash Freeway by 2031.
