In December 1962 a large overhead gantry with directional signs and traffic lights, was erected by the Department of Main Roads.^[1] It was quickly nicknamed the Meccano Set with reference to the children's construction toy Meccano. At that stage, the intersection was a junction for through traffic between Brisbane and Melbourne. Although this was superseded by the Cumberland Highway in August 1988, it remains an important intersection.^[2][3]

In early 2019, the overhead structure was replaced with a new identical pre-fabricated version and was completed in June 2019.^[4][5]
