Transport Infrastructure Act 1994

This section applies if, under the resumption laws, the chief executive, for the State, acquires an interest in land that is less than a freehold interest (the acquired land) for use by a railway manager as part of a rail transport corridor.

The acquired land is free of any interest or obligation arising under the interest that was acquired.

The chief executive, for the State, may exercise all the powers of an owner in relation to the acquired land.

The chief executive must, as soon as practicable, arrange for the acquired land to become unallocated State land for the purposes of section 240.

However, the chief executive may delay the acquired land becoming unallocated State land until any proposed rail transport infrastructure is built or substantially built and the boundaries of the land are more accurately defined.

The Acquisition of Land Act 1967, section 12(2A), does not apply to the acquired land.

In this section—

the Transport Planning and Coordination Act 1994, section 25; and

the Acquisition of Land Act 1967.
