Greg Hunt's 2200 vision: why rebuild rail underground when we can expand? (Parts 2 & 3)
Following on from yesterday - Greg Hunt's Melbourne 2200 Vision is an expensive flop, but... - here is a summary and links to the subsequent episodes on Adam Ford's blog.
Part two centres around looking at the blackspots in the current network and walks through projects which could extend the reach of the network into these areas. Upfield, Alamein, Glen Waverley line extensions and new lines through Fishermans Bend, Doncaster to Ringwood and through Monash and Rowville to Ferntree Gully are all discussed.
In part three, Adam looks at how 26 heavy rail-connected CADs can be used to create a polycentric city; likewise the airport could have two rail lines with the addition primarily of a new outer circle orbital railway from Cheltenham to the Airport.
