The online questionnaire, which closed at midnight Tuesday after opening in late March, sought feedback on the cut to the 110km/h at the McKoy Street intersection.

VicRoads North Eastern regional director Steve Bowmaker said the replies would be "vital to help us to understand how safe the community feels travelling through the 80 km/h speed zone".

"We've had around 2000 responses, which we'll now collate and assess together with input from Victoria Police and City of Wodonga, traffic data and other technical criteria to inform a final decision," he said.

"We'd like to thank community for their interest, we're pleased so many people have taken the time to give us such valuable feedback."

Candidates for Indi were quizzed about the speed limit on the federally-funded road at The Border Mail's election forum this week.

Nationals candidate Mark Byatt said he did not agree with the speed restriction, saying it was "fundamentally wrong" for a national highway.

"For me, I think, there's a lot more work to be done in that space," Mr Byatt said.

"It needs to be back up to 110, but you've got to have the right sort of infrastructure to be able to do that to make sure you've got safe exit and on ramps."

Mr Byatt said a diamond interchange or flyover was needed as 80km/h was "clearly unacceptable".

Liberal candidate Steve Martin said he had been contacted by truck drivers who believed the modified intersection was unsafe and were using alternative longer routes to access the freeway.

Orange Independent Helen Haines asked for the audience to put up hands if they supported the site returning to 110km/h, the majority did.

Green Helen Robinson suggested there were more important election issues than the black spot.

Labor hopeful Eric Kerr warned that when a motorist lost their life it would become "a very, very serious thing".
