Route
Dandenong Valley Highway begins at its junction with the Nepean Highway, in central Frankston. It heads as a two-lane, two-way road alongside the Frankston railway line to the Frankston Freeway. It then roughly heads north east as a four lane dual carriageway to Dandenong, the centre of which the road runs through as a four lane single carriageway. After Dandenong, the road again becomes a four lane dual carriageway, heading north, through Rowville, Scoresby and Westfield Knox shopping centre in Wantirna South. At Boronia Road in Wantirna, the road narrows down to one lane, before eventually terminating at Mountain Highway, in Bayswater.

Famous quotes containing the word route:
“But however the forms of family life have changed and the number expanded, the role of the family has remained constant and it continues to be the major institution through which children pass en route to adulthood.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
“no arranged terror: no forcing of image, plan,
or thought:
no propaganda, no humbling of reality to precept:
terror pervades but is not arranged, all possibilities
of escape open: no route shut,”
—Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)
