	Calder Freeway
		This 7km section of new freeway passes through a predominantly rural environment, including sections of open pastures and others of dense Eucalypt forest in the Mt Macedon area.
		The most important focus of the landscape project was minimisation of the impact of the freeway corridor passing through intact bushland of the Black Forest.
		Environmental strengths of the project include retention of important vegetation habitat in the medians of the divided freeway, and significant widening of the bridge crossing of Slaty Creek to protect the riparian and natural hydrological values.

	Stateline Victoria
		And clause 3D, "Victoria undertakes to ensure that users of the Scoresby Freeway "will not be required to pay a direct toll." Now, there has never been a case yet, where a State government, Queensland, NSW, Tasmania, any State government has breeched a written agreement, it hasn't happened before.
		We have an agreement for the Calder Freeway too, that as the State government allocates money, the Commonwealth does.
		And if the Victorian Government breeches the agreement, you can hardly put $440 million into the freeway, because you wouldn't be using tax payers dollars, the tolls would be paying for construction.

		One route is via the Western Freeway heading towards Ballarat and this route passes near Deer Park, Bacchus Marsh and Ballan.
		The other is via the Calder Freeway heading towards Bendigo and passes near Hanging Rock, Mount Macedon, Woodend and Trentham.
		The Calder Freeway route is perhaps the more scenic but involves a little less freeway travel and thus slightly more country road driving.

	Brimbank City Council - Interchanges still needed on Calder Freeway (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Brimbank Mayor, Cr Natalie Suleyman believes the State Government’s announcement of a $450,000 package of safety improvements for the Calder Freeway between Sunshine Avenue and the Thunderdome Circuit will only go a small way to solve issues for motorists on the Calder Freeway.
		These intersections have seen too many accidents in recent years and the traffic management measures that were implemented by Vic Roads in late 2004 have placed a strain on the local road network.
		Cr Suleyman said extending Kings Road to the Calder Freeway would improve access to the City via the Calder Freeway and relieve traffic congestion on Melton Highway.

		Our position in relation to the Calder Highway is that we have been funding its extension, I think it is now as far as Kyneton or it is going to be shortly to Kyneton, and we have also made it clear that it is a Road of National Importance.

		Description: National Road 79 is Victoria's shortest National Route, and probably the most useless, since it has become shorter and shorter, and the only reason it still exists is because it is within the metropolitan area where the alpha-numeric system has not taken over, except for some M routes.
		NR79 begins on Kings Way at West Gate Freeway (M1), crossing the Yarra River into the CBD (although it is part of the City Bypass), along King Street, right up Curzon Street in North Melbourne, bending into Harker Street, then left along Flemington Road, disappearing once you hit the Western Link (MR43) exit.
		It used to follow what was then Tullamarine Freeway until 1989, linking it with Calder Freeway.
