I suggest that the person who stated that "The freeway then changes its name to the Metropolitan Ring Road east of the interchange with Sydney Road" check again, as the name (Western Ring Rd) has been extended to the Hume Freeway. The Metropolitan Ring Road signage currently at Sydney Road predates the opening of the Hume Freeway and therefore has not been updated to reflect this. --Sk-4 (talk) 05:43, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- Provide a citation. The only unambiguous signage on the road for the region between Sydney Rd and the Hume Fwy is the km markers on the side. Aspirex (talk) 02:53, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
- Have you travelled the freeway east towards the Hume Fwy interchange? Every sign southbound on the Hume Freeway states that the Metropolitan Ring Road is to the east, and Western Ring Road is to the west. In addition, the roadway between Sydney Rd and Hume Fwy was redeclared as the Western Ring Road as of January 2007.

- No, I only ever travel west; it makes getting home difficult, though... deadpan humour. I believe the eastbound sign declares Metro Ring Road at the Sydney Road interchange; nevertheless, the citation of redeclaration is all that matters. Don't know why they would bother, though. Probably worth mentioning somewhere that that section changed its name. Aspirex (talk) 09:30, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
