Good news for the Heidelberg Golf Club!
A PREFERRED route, which will increase the cost of the North East Link, has been chosen by an Andrews Government Cabinet subcommittee.
The chosen route will cost between $10 billion and $13 billion to build, will run through three electorates and require dozens of homes and businesses to be acquired.
It is expected to be officially announced as the preferred route immediately after being ticked off by Cabinet on Monday afternoon.
It is also understood the project would be accompanied with compensation for school and community groups in Opposition Leader Matthew Guy’s seat of Bulleen.
The preferred route, known as option A, was one of four being considered by the subcommittee.
