    We need this and SRL north asap!! Will really help reduce the stress on the city centre and spread Melbournes grown to already existing areas, hopefully there will be even more SRL expansions in the future! A Frankston to Dandenong line, Melbourne Metro 2 from Mernda to electrified Geelong metro services runner along underground from Clifton hill to Newport via Collingwood, Fitzroy, Parkville, southern cross and fisherman’s bend would be needed just as much. Rail to airport also a given as well.

      I do not agree. The most pressing transport needs that should be addressed are re-configuring our bus network, which for the overwhelming majority is an circuitous, infrequent, uncoordinated mess. There are far too many companies operating our bus network.
      Also Melton, Wyndhamvale and Tarneit Stations need to be brought into Metro Network. The Regional Rail Network simply cannot cope with infrequent vline services. I rode on it yesterday and the trains were at standing room only when it arrived at Wyndhamvale. That was for a 6 car train.
      Far too many of our suburbs do not have a decent bus service and yet the Government is willing to sink billions into the SRL?

      Sneaky little part of it is that SRL authority gets to make planning decisions for like 1k around the stations or something?? Not sure how accurate that is but basically ensuring high density development gets done

    While I support investments in public transport, Melbourne really needs to improve its bus services. There are dozens if not hundreds of bus routes around Melbourne that need to be straightened, given priority at intersections and improve frequency and operating hours. Many areas have no bus service at all on weekends, or if there is, it comes once an hour if you're lucky. Buses aren't as exciting as new rail lines, but they serve a valuable role in helping people move around and reducing congestion caused by excess numbers of private vehicles on our streets.

    This should be put on Hold & do the Airport rail link as promised first as we are the only place in Australia that does not have a railway to Melbourne airport, & this would have benefit for everyone that will use this to go on flights booked, working at the airport & shopping also at Melbourne airport & will save time rather than taking your car there to park & parking fees also.
    Then after this is done maybe continue SRL if we still need it as they are destroying people new units, houses purchased, shops even an Rsl club etc will go where they have plan for this SRL.

    Waste of money. It doesn't even go into the city, which is where everyone actually works and want to go.
