Victorian Government announced a massive upgrade of the Shepparton line and new coach services as part of an ongoing revival of public transport in regional Victoria.
Minister for Public Transport Jacinta Allan has outlined the USD 32.6 million investment funded in the Victorian Budget 2017/18. The upgrade will deliver new train stabling at Shepparton and a new crossing loop near Murchison East to enable more services to and from Shepparton from 2020.
The new coaches will start early next year, with timetabling to be determined through community consultation in coming months.
Under the budget, a USD 233 million financing is delivered for 39 new VLocity carriages.
