The Altona Esplanade summer road closure is back.

The Esplanade in Altona will be closed to cars from Bent Street to Pier Street from December 15 until the end of summer, as part of the annual Altona Beach Precinct pedestrian only zone.

This zone creates a safer environment for pedestrians, reduces hoon driving behaviour and supports police surveillance.

Altona pier has been closed by Parks Victoria while it is being redeveloped, with the works set to be completed in 2023.
