Retrieved on 8 September 2013.〕 is an 87 kilometre highway in Victoria, Australia and branches off the South Gippsland Highway at the township of Lang Lang. It runs south, along the eastern shore of Western Port to Anderson where a road turns west toward Phillip Island. The Bass Highway continues easterly to Kilcunda, Wonthaggi and Inverloch, then turns north-easterly to rejoin the South Gippsland Highway at Leongatha. Previously assigned State Route 181, it was later designated M420 for the dual carriageway sections and A420 for the single carriageway sections between the South Gippsland Highway near Lang Lang and the Phillip Island turn-off, then designated B460 onwards. The road was named due to its proximity to Bass Strait. ==Duplication towards Phillip Island== A project which has commenced in the late 1990s, duplication of the highway along the Bass Highway from Lang Lang to Anderson (east of Phillip Island) is nearing completion. This project was constructed to address the high traffic demand of the route and recent crash history. It was constructed in seven stages, with Stage 7 of the project from Woolmer Road to Phillip Island Road completed in 2013. The benefits of this project include: *reduced travel times to Phillip Island which hosts some of Victoria's favourite tourist and sporting attractions *eliminating the roundabout at Anderson, and providing a direct route between Melbourne and Phillip Island *bypassing a winding section of Phillip Island Road and providing two added lanes along Bass Highway. This will help address the crash history in this area. There have been 13 crashes in a recent five-year period. *an overpass, which will be constructed near Netherwood will provide smoother and safer movements at the connection of the Bass Highway and the new link road, for Phillip Island and Wonthaggi-bound traffic *helping traffic to exit Phillip Island after major events such as the MotoGP The project was completed in 2013.〔(Bass Highway Duplication – Lang Lang to Anderson ), ''VicRoads''.
