| HUNDREDS of home owners, small businesses and farmers on Melbourne's north-western fringe could be forced to sell up to the State Government under a plan to reserve land for an outer metropolitan ring road.
The proposed road would cut a 70-kilometre swath across public and private land to link the Hume Freeway at Kalkallo with the Princes Freeway beyond Werribee.
VicRoads and the Department of Infrastructure have launched a two-year investigation, which will identify the private properties that would need to be acquired — by force if necessary — and what public land should be preserved.
According to VicRoads: "This investigation is very early in the process — matters of compensation and the like are determined once VicRoads actually needs to acquire land. In that case, compensation is paid in accordance with the provisions of the Land Acquisition and Compensation Act 1986."
