These signs are a juxtaposition that we hate to see.

There are maintenance works scheduled on the Belgrave / Lilydale Line between Box Hill and Parliament on the same weekend as the Grand Prix, Moomba, AFL Opening Round and Labour Day.

Not a great way to promote heading to the Grand Prix or any of the other events this weekend by public transport.

@philip It takes two clicks after the QR code to find key information for GP patrons. This should have gone on the GP poster for these lines, rather than using the same poster they're displaying network wide.

@danielbowen @philip Wait — there's two whole posters up.

Yet the most important detail for people heading to the Grand Prix (buses heading direct from Box Hill to Anzac station) appeared on none of them?!

@aj @danielbowen Yep I didn't realise that was an option until today

@philip @danielbowen Isn't it opening weekend for the AFL too, or is that just in Sydney? You'd think that would be a big deal in Melbourne?

@philip @danielbowen Yeah, I just checked: Collingwood vs St Kilda at the MCG on Sunday. Hope they've got enough replacement busses.
