🚴🚉It's World Bicycle Day! Bikes and PT are a great combination. Safe bike routes and secure bike parking can help more people reach the station, for a fraction of the space and cost of car parks.

Thanks for all those who attended our meeting with Public Transport Minister Gabrielle Williams tonight. Sorry we couldn't get to all the member questions in the time available - we're hoping to get a few more responses into the next newsletter. We'll have to have her back sometime!
tfw you're wishing for more bus lanes
Just 56% of V/Line Swan Hill and Echuca trains were on time (within 11 minutes) in April, and Albury wasn't much better. V/Line and the government must do more to identify and resolve the causes of delays. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-05-24/vline-data-shows-trains-late-lowest-in-decade/106696478
Data reveals V/Line punctuality on two routes dropped to lowest in a decade

The latest V/Line data reveals only 56 per cent of services arrived on time on two regional train routes during Victoria's first month of free public transport. 

Extra train services this weekend due to events and works closures are a reminder that we could have high frequency metro services like other cities - it's mostly not an infrastructure issue, it's a matter of politics and government priority.
Better public transport helps keep #Melbourne moving.
🚆🚧Catching a train this weekend? Watch out for bus replacements, a closure of the Metro Tunnel and most of the City Loop. Also (not shown on this unofficial map) some additional bus replacements on Metro and V/Line in the evenings. #Melbourne #Victoria
