This budget paper includes newly announced capital projects, works already underway and those expected to finish by 30 June 2019. The information is current as at 13 May 2019. DELIVERING INFRASTRUCTURE TO BENEFIT ALL VICTORIANS The 2019-20 Budget continues the Government’s commitment to infrastructure investment that will deliver benefits across the State. The capital program reflects commitments in Labor’s Financial Statement 2018 as well as other high-priority projects which will deliver critical transport infrastructure, upgrade and build new schools and enhance infrastructure and services across the state. The Government is planning and building intergenerational infrastructure projects such as the North East Link, Melbourne Airport Rail and removing an additional 25 level crossings to transform the transport network and support a growing economy. Investing in this scale of economy-growing infrastructure will benefit all Victorians – today and for generations to come. Modest increases in public borrowing will be applied to road and rail projects, which boost productivity through improved access to jobs, shorter commuter travel times and better connections for freight to market. Delivering now and planning for the future is necessary to ensure Victoria’s liveability. The 2019-20 Budget provides planning funding for transformative rail projects including the Suburban Rail Loop and the Western Rail Plan, so the Government can begin planning future investments that will shape our cities, precincts and growth areas across the State. The Government has responded to Victoria’s strong population growth by making significant asset investments in health, education and community safety infrastructure. New and upgraded schools, hospitals and community assets will improve

SGS Economics and Planning Pty Ltd ACN 007 437 729 www.sgsep.com.au Offices in Canberra, Hobart, Melbourne, Sydney 01 INTRODUCTION WILL THE $50 BILLION PROPOSED SUBURBAN RAIL LOOP HELP SHAPE THE MELBOURNE WE WANT? In late August 2018, Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews proposed a $50 billion suburban rail loop connecting all major rail lines from east to west via Melbourne Airport. Due for completion in 2050, theSuburban Rail Loop will connect every major Melbourne railway line – proposed stops include Werribee, Sunshine, Melbourne Airport, Broadmeadows, Fawkner, Reservoir, Bundoora, Heidelberg, Doncaster, Box Hill, Burwood, Glen Waverley, Monash, Clayton and Cheltenham. Heralded as the biggest public transport project in Australian history by the state government, the massive project aims to respond to Melbourne’s groaning road and rail system and will potentially be the most extensive rail system in Australian history. The first round of strategic planning for the Suburban Rail Loop was put together by Development Victoria with detailed engineering plans and a business case yet to be completed. In this article, we explore what makes a city-shaping project and whether the suburban rail loop has the potential to transform Melbourne into the city we want.

  • Review of Strategic Direction
    Strategic Context MGS Architects | TQ Planning | 2Movement & Place Consulting | SGS Economics & Planning | 12 2.1 Overview 2.1.1 Location The Wurundjeri– Balluk Tribe are the traditional custodians of the land on which Box Hill is located. The tribe, whose traditional language is Woi Wurrung, is one of the five tribes that make up the Kulin nation. The tribe has historical links with the wider area now known as the City of Whitehorse extending over 40,000 years. Whitehorse City Council respectfully acknowledges the Traditional owners of the land which is now called Whitehorse, the Wurundjeri people and their elders past and present. Box Hill is located approximately 14km east of Melbourne’s Central Business District (CBD). Box Hill is located in what is considered Melbourne’s ‘middle ring’ with a gateway role in connecting the outer region with inner Melbourne. The centre is located at an important location on the Lilydale and Belgrave rail line, Whitehorse Road and at the terminus of the 109 tram route. Box Hill’s origins are completely dependent on transport and it being a focal point for economic activity and transfer of goods and services. This role has strengthened over time, though been less relevant over the last 50 years of automobile dependence. As traffic congestion increases we are now at a tipping point where Box Hill’s locational strengths could again be a key driver of growth. Box Hill has consistently been considered a strategic centre in Melbourne metropolitan planning policy since its designation as a District Business Centre in the 1954 Metropolitan Planning Scheme, see Figure 2.1.

  • The Suburban Rail Loop: 50 Billion Reasons Why (Or Why Not)?
    Presentation to VPELA Seminar 05/03/2019 The Suburban Rail Loop: 50 Billion Reasons Why (or Why Not)? Peter Tesdorpf - Rail Futures Institute 1 What is Rail Futures? Rail Futures Institute is an independent non-partisan group. Formed to advocate cost-effective rail and intermodal solutions for public transport and freight problems based on sound commercial, economic and social reasoning. Rail Futures members include experienced rail professionals, engineers, urban planners and economists. 2 Successful Outcomes • InterCity Regional Rail Plan - blueprint for Victorian regional rail to 2040. • Government announcements to date for airport rail align substantially with RFI’s AIRTRAIN proposal. • Government’s Western Rail Plan, Ballarat, Gippsland and other line upgrades align well with RFI recommendations. • Many RFI InterCity proposals reflected in Victorian Coalition regional rail policy. 3 4 5 6 7 WHY WE NEED THE MELBOURNE RAIL PLAN • Unprecedented population growth not seen since the 1850s Gold Rush. • Highest growth rate of Western cities. • Rapid urban densification occurring in inner and middle suburbs • Extensive outer urban growth areas lacking high quality public transport • Melbourne facing a transport crisis – roads, trains, trams near capacity • Car dependency levels becoming unsustainable • Our trams among the world’s slowest – operating well below their potential • We have a land use plan but no transport plan – as mandated by the Transport Integration Act. 8 Growth has outpaced transport network (1) Original radial train and tram network has not kept pace with Melbourne’s growth…..started falling behind from the late 1950s. The network was good for a city of 2-3 million, but not for now and the future, as these figures illustrate: • 88% of the area and 92% of the population of Melbourne’s inner area (where there is a partial grid network) is covered by high capacity (rail) public transport.

  • Transport in NE Melbourne Draft 2
    Transport in Melbourne’s North Eastern Suburbs: North East Link is Not the Solution Residents in Melbourne’s north eastern suburbs face a huge lack of transport options, leading thousands of commuters to rely upon their cars as the only reliable choice. Our north eastern suburbs are a public transport black spot, with only buses serving the majority of the area. For instance, residents in Manningham Council are the only metropolitan Melbourne area to have no access to any trains or trams. Reliance on an under-resourced bus network is leading to falling levels of patronage and forcing more people into their cars, creating increasingly congested streets. http://www.snamuts.com/melbourne-2014.html Melbourne is now growing faster than other Australian cities. By 2050 the city is projected to reach 8-11 million residents. We can’t expect that number of people to move on our road network every day. We must build better transport solutions. Decisions about our transport infrastructure which we make today will affect everyone in 10, 20 and 30 years’ time. Instead of providing for our current transport needs, and planning for future public transport reQuirements, the Andrews government is currently racing to build a mega toll road project through north east Melbourne. 1 The proposed North East Link would tunnel under the Yarra River. Flyovers and spaghetti junctions will divide the local suburbs, from Watsonia, Rosanna and Ivanhoe to Greensborough, Templestowe and Bulleen. The biggest changes are to the Eastern Freeway, with plans for up to 20 lanes of traffic heading in and out of the city.

  • Victorian Government Announce Suburban Rail Loop August 2018
    Victorian Government announce Suburban Rail Loop August 2018 On 28 August 2018 the Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews announced that a re-elected Labor Government will invest $300 million in a full business case for the Suburban Rail Loop. The 90-kilometre project will connect every major train line from Frankston in the State’s south-east to Werribee in its west via Melbourne Airport. The Loop will allow commuters from the suburbs and regional areas to reach other suburban or regional areas without having to travel into the CBD to change lines. Instead, the Loop will establish a polycentric rail network in which major suburban and regional employment centres, universities and hospitals will be accessible by a single train line. Over the past 12 months Development Victoria, PricewaterhouseCoopers, and the Office of the Coordinator General have conducted a Strategic Assessment of the project, including identification of the project corridor. Funding for the project will require State, Commonwealth and private sector contributions, as well as value capture opportunities. The new line is expected to become Victoria’s busiest by 2051, accommodating 400,000 daily trips and taking 200,000 vehicle trips off major roads. An estimated 20,000 jobs will be created in the construction phase of the project, including 2,000 apprentices, trainees and cadets employed through the Victorian Labor Government’s Major Projects Skills Guarantee. Timeline Development of the full business case will commence in 2019. The business case will investigate exact station locations, route alignment, rolling stock, staging, and environmental assessments. Community consultation and industry engagement will commence in 2019.
