This report for the 1984-85 financial year, the second annual report of the Authority, comes at a time when many of the changes foreshadowed in our first report are coming to fruition. The year under review saw the reorganisation of the Authority virtually completed. We have been able to build on the solid foundation laid in our first year of operation. Our trading name Vfline- is now firmly established in the Victorian community. We are receiving increasing recognition as a provider of a comprehensive range of country and interstate passenger travel packages as well as a major carrier of Victorian and interstate freight. Our upgraded pass~nger services continue to attract more travellers each year with passenger numbers up by 8.6 per cent in 1984-85. This builds on the increase of the previous year giving a growth over two years of 18 per cent. Freight revenue for the year rose by 18 per cent over our 1983-84 performance. This represents a 13 per cent increase in tonnage carried. With a harvest of approximately 3.5 million tonnes and a carryover from the previous year Vjline hauled more than four million tonnes of grain. Improvements to operational effi­ ciencies such as the greater use of block trains and central receival points contributed to this movement being achieved without fuss. Further plans in the coming year to build more grain wagons and the procurement of new locomotives will enhance our capacity. The Louis Alien system of corporate management adopted by the Authority continues to be developed through the various levels of management with position charters now pre­ pared for many officers down to the middle levels of the organisation. The move by Vjline's Head Office staff to new headquarters at Transport House, 589 Collins Street, Melbourne is now almost completed. The modern functional surroundings have provided a further boost to the morale of our personnel and to our public image as a modern transport operation. Vjline's draft five-year Corporate Plan, the first prepared by the organisation. was rel­ eased to the public in May. Consultations on the Plan with all interested parties ar· continuing into the new financial year.

No part may be reproduced by any process except in accordance with the provisions of the Copyright Act 1968. Authorised by the Victorian Government, 80 Collins Street, Melbourne. Minister’s Foreword In February 2004, after the failure of the original privatisation framework, the Victorian Government entered into new franchise agreements with Melbourne’s public transport companies, Yarra Trams and Connex. These partnership agreements find the balance between government support for public transport in Melbourne and the operational expertise provided by experienced private rail operators. Almost one year on, the new arrangements are running smoothly, providing stability across the public transport system and giving a solid foundation for a range of improvements in service delivery. Some of the other benefits to passengers that stem from these agreements include: • Additional front-line customer service staff; • Increased security patrols; • Improved driver training programs; • All night New Year’s Eve services; • Additional rolling stock; and • Improved standards for the upkeep of transport facilities. The key themes of this summary report include the background to the failure of the original contracts, the renegotiations, the nature of the new partnership agreements and the challenges of the refranchising process.

  • APPENDIX a – Rail Manufacturing in Victoria
    Rail Manufacturing in Victoria Summary of key points • Approximately 1000 people are employed directly by the major rail rolling stock manufacturers in Victoria and another 5,000 to 10,000 employed in their supply chain. • Rail rolling stock manufacturing is directly influenced by State Government procurement policy and purchasing decisions. Victorian Government local content rules are weak compared to interstate and international examples. In recent years, the New South Wales and Victorian Governments have collectively awarded $3.8 billion worth of contracts to overseas manufacturers. • The Victorian Transport Plan commits to $3.6 billion in new investment in rail rolling stock over 4 years. Manufacturing 50 % of these new vehicles in Victoria would create 2,250 full- time jobs directly and another 5,400 – 6,300 full-time jobs indirectly in the supply chain. • A strong rail manufacturing sector could provide thousands of jobs for retrenched automotive workers as long as the training system was made more flexible and relevant to industry needs. • Ongoing investment in local manufacturing would ensure the continued existence of a skilled workforce and provide a solid platform for expanded export opportunities. Once local manufacturing capacity is allowed to erode it is difficult, if not impossible to regain. Introduction Victoria is facing the twin challenges of climate change and the global financial crisis. Already the economic downturn has cost thousands of Victorian jobs, many in the manufacturing sector and expectations are for unemployment to rise further in the coming year. At the same time, the impacts of climate change and peak oil will be felt most by low income and disadvantaged Victorians, particularly those living on the outskirts of our cities.
