They're headed for population...

[Peter Barton]

A PLANNED new ''CBD'' for Melbourne's west that the Baillieu government hopes will house 20,000 people and create 50,000 jobs will fail without high-quality public transport, planning experts warn.

The government on Tuesday announced plans for a new suburb and employment centre, to be built on 770 hectares of state-owned land between Werribee and Point Cook.

I haven't been able to determine if any Mad Max locations are covered by this, but I suspect at least a couple would be touched on. See them now before they're all built over!

I was quite sadden to see what they did to railway station.... not to mention that the property where the chimney is now have a "modern" fence...

I have not been to the locations but a quick look on this site and Near Map shows me this development is happening right in Werribbee, away from Lara and Little River. Looks like it wont really affect the filming locations.
