Guillotine cuts off road

A part of South Gippsland Highway in Dandenong South was closed due to a guillotine falling off the back of a truck.

Police shut-down the left-hand southbound lane near Dandenong Bypass for about an hour from 9am on Thursday 27 June.

A VicRoads spokesperson said the fallen guillotine had gouged the tarmac.

A repair crew patched up the damage, spreading “sand and kitty litter” over the road section.
