  • If the victorian railways were held accountable and there was less corruption in victracks property division, the dodgy land sales to property developers would stop and there would be more funding for our public transport.

    I think we should demo a free system here but with the mayors wanting to rip up bike lanes and the state investing so heavily in roads there's probably no money left for pt.

  • Trams are expensive here
  • In 2005, the state committed almost $1 billion to develop myki by 2007 to replace the ageing Metcard system, and operate myki for 10 years

    Just over half of myki's almost $1 billion initial budget—around $520 million—was for establishing the system by 2007 and operating it for 10 years.

    It was expected that myki would deliver around $6.3–$10.8 million per year in economic benefits to the state...

    myki was great value /s

    www.abc.net.au France's high-speed rail network hit by arson attacks hours before Olympics ceremony

    Fires started in railway cabling have impacted up to 800,000 people across the French railway network on the eve of the Paris Olympics.

    France's high-speed rail network hit by arson attacks hours before Olympics ceremony

    "Train operator SNCF's chief executive, Jean-Pierre Farandou, said the attackers had started fires in "conduits carrying multiple (fibre-optic) cables" that carried "safety information for drivers" or control the motors for points."

    Seems this attack is becoming more common place. Used to just be the occasional tractor or digger damaging fibre but now it's seems to be intentional.
