Chandler Highway is an exceptionally short road in the inner eastern suburbs of Melbourne. It runs from Heidelberg Road in Alphington, across the Yarra River, using a narrow two-lane bridge originally designed to carry rail transport. It then continues across the Eastern Freeway, then terminates at an intersection with Princes Road and Earl Street. Its total length is less than 2 kilometres.

Some or all of Chandler Highway was renamed from Fulham Road. [1]
