Constituency questions – Sunbury Rail Services

Mr J. BULL (Sunbury) — (Question 6328) My question is to the Minister for Public Transport. Can the minister provide an update on what action she is taking to address the concerns raised by a number of my constituents at a recent community public transport forum in Sunbury, specifically regarding changes to the pick-up and set-down restrictions imposed by V/Line as well as the current Metro services in the area.

The minister will recall she joined me and a number of representatives from Public Transport Victoria at Sunbury Bowls Club to hear from many concerned residents about changes to train services in Sunbury. The forum provided a great opportunity for residents to share their views about public transport in the area — now and into the future. Many residents, though, raised the changes to pick-up and set-down rules imposed by V/Line and the lack of Metro services to and from Sunbury, and I ask the minister to respond to these concerns.
