Dated 1 August 2006 JIM BETTS Director of Public Transport SPECIAL 2 S 190 1 August 2006 Victoria Government Gazette VICTORIAN FARES AND TICKETING MANUAL 2006 (effective 1 August 2006) CHAPTER 1 Introduction Over the last four years, there have been significant improvements to public transport ticketing in Victoria. More than two million $2.50 Sunday Saver tickets have been sold since the product was introduced in April 2005, with the ticket contributing to patronage growth on Sundays of more than 20 per cent. On 22 April 2006, integration between V/Line and Metcard commenced, with most V/Line tickets now valid for travel on selected metropolitan and regional bus services – significantly reducing fares for many customers. The provision of concession fares for Seniors at all times on V/Line completes a four year program to standardise concessions, fixing the previous situation where certain customers were eligible for concessions on Metcard services, but not on V/Line.

  • Melbourne to Bendigo and Echuca Railway 3
    Engineers Australia Engineering Heritage Victoria Nomination for Recognition under the Engineering Heritage Australia Heritage Recognition Program for the Goldfields Railways - Melbourne, Bendigo & Echuca Railway May 2012 2 Cover Photograph Malmsbury Viaduct has been in continuous railway service for 150 years. It was completed in October 1860, two years before the opening of the Melbourne to Bendigo Railway in October 1862. The train is a V/Line class N diesel-electric locomotive hauling an N type carriage set on its way south to Melbourne. The white concrete structure in the lower right hand corner of the photograph is the aqueduct from Malmsbury Reservoir to Bendigo which passes under the viaduct beside the Coliban River. It should be noted that the viaduct now carries only a single Irish Broad Gauge (5’3”) track although it carried two tracks for most of its life. This image was taken from the Malmsbury Botanic Gardens, downstream from the viaduct, probably in 2007 or 2008.

The sessional volume for the first sitting period of the Fifth Parliament, from 12 February to 10 April 1866, contains the following preface dated 11 April: As a preface to the first volume of “Parliamentary Debates” (new series), it is not inappropriate to state that prior to the Fifth Parliament of Victoria the newspapers of the day virtually supplied the only records of the debates of the Legislature. With the commencement of the Fifth Parliament, however, an independent report was furnished by a special staff of reporters, and issued in weekly parts. This volume contains the complete reports of the proceedings of both Houses during the past session. In 2016 the Hansard Unit of the Department of Parliamentary Services continues the work begun 150 years ago of providing an accurate and complete report of the proceedings of both houses of the Victorian Parliament.
