Box Hill already has many high-rise buildings. I find it a little difficult to believe that SRL is solely to blame for developers sniffing around wanting to build more of them. www.theage.com.au/li... ($) #Melbourne

As the Suburban Rail Loop drives up rents, this affordable health clinic could become homeless
Policies aimed at better public transport and more housing in Box Hill could have the perverse effect of forcing out a not-for-profit clinic that provides health services to the same, fast-growing population.

More Metro tunnel testing this weekend. Still difficult to say when it'll open to the public - sounds like still a bit of work to do on Town Hall and State Library stations. #Melbourne #PublicTransport

Inevitably there will be some comparisons between the Suburban Rail Loop and East West Link. A key difference here is that SRL went to two elections before contracts were signed. EWL went to zero. www.theage.com.au/na... #Melbourne #transport

Cancelling Suburban Rail Loop likely to cost billions
Insiders estimate the payout could exceed the $1.1 billion it cost the Andrews government to cancel the East West Link.

The major parties love our housing bubble. It's a perfectly calibrated machine for sucking wealth from workers and the poor to developers, banks and property investors like Dutton. Every new policy is just a means to further inflate prices and enrich those at the top of the pile.

Many of Melbourne's train timetables haven't changed in decades, and it's particularly noticeable on the weekends and evenings when you'll be waiting up to 40-60 minutes; 4 times as long as at most Sydney stations. This Age article from Thursday highlights the issue.
Article from The Age: Train timetables are stuck in the 90s as north, west lines fall behind. Full text at https://www.theage.com.au/national/victoria/train-timetables-are-stuck-in-the-1990s-for-melbourne-s-north-and-west-20250402-p5loh6.html (pay wall)Table:  Train frequencies across Melbourne's network
Hours with services every 15 minutes or better. Parker said Melbourne train services dropped off dramatically outside peak hours, particularly with 30-40 minute waits each evening, and on Sunday mornings as trains sat idle. He pointed out that Penrith station in Sydney’s outer west had far more frequent services than similar outer suburbs in Melbourne.

“We’re pretty well set up with infrastructure now. We just don’t use it,” he said.

“Melbourne bills itself as a livable city with all these major events. A lot of them are on weekends, and a lot of them require big numbers of people to go to temporary jobs to help run these events. But the train services have certainly not kept up.”
