Landowner Update The Metropolitan Planning Authority (MPA) is working with Mitchell Shire Council to prepare a Precinct Structure Plan (PSP) for the Beveridge North West Precinct. A PSP is a ‘big picture’ plan that sets the vision for the use and development of new urban communities within the growth areas of Melbourne. The Beveridge North West precinct covers 1,250 hectares in Beveridge. The precinct is located west of the Hume Freeway, north of Camerons Lane and east of Old Sydney Road. It is identified as a future residential area in the Victorian Government’s Growth Corridor Plan. Beveridge North West PRECINCT STRUCTURE PLAN NORTH GROWTH CORRIDOR PLAN The MPA released the Growth Corridor Plans for Melbourne’s growth areas in June 2012. The Growth Corridor Plan sets out the strategic direction by identifying integrated land use and transport plans that provide a framework to guide planning of new communities in each growth area. The Beveridge North West precinct is located in Melbourne’s North Growth corridor. The north growth corridor is forecast to provide houses for up to 330,000 people and provide between 83,000 to 105,000 jobs. The North Growth Corridor Plan identifies the land within Beveridge North West as predominantly residential with important landscape values (including hilltops and ridgelines). The Growth Corridor Plans highlight the need to consider housing types, water management, character and identity, transport links and landscape values. The Growth Corridor identifies: • Key north-south and east-west roads (both new and upgrades to existing roads); • Regional active open space; • Investigation of the Camerons Lane and Hadfield Road interchange with the Hume Freeway/Northern Hwy; • Landscape values.
