  • Outer Melbourne Connect | Special Report October 2008
    • transport • community • industry outer Special Report | October 2008 melbourne outer melbourne connect | special report October 2008 Melbourne is booming. Every week, another 1,200 people call Melbourne home and the Victorian Government now predicts that we will become the nation’s largest city within 20 years. This rapid population growth has strained Melbourne’s transport system and threatens Victoria’s economic prosperity and Melbourne’s liveability. The region feeling the pain the outer most is outer Melbourne, home to over half of Melbourne’s population and set for continued rapid growth. melbourne In 2002, RACV produced a special report titled ‘The Missing Links’, which presented a plan for upgrading transport infrastructure in outer metropolitan Melbourne. transport The Missing Links identified seventy-four critical road and public transport projects and a much needed $2.2 billion community investment. Six years on, only half of these projects have been built or had funds committed to build them. The other industry half remain incomplete and the intervening period of strong population and economic growth has created further pressing demands on our transport system. Melbourne’s liveability is recognised worldwide and RACV wants it to stay this way. For this reason, we have again consulted with state and local governments and listened to Members to identify an updated program of works to meet the needs of people living in and travelling through Melbourne’s outer suburbs. RACV presents Outer Melbourne Connect as a responsible blueprint comprising road improvements, rail line extensions and significant public transport service improvements.Connect provides a comprehensive and connected transport network to address the critical backlog of projects in outer Melbourne.

The following document from the Victorian National Parks Association (VNPA) draws attention to the acute shortages of national park so your initiative couldn't come at a better time: https://vnpa.org.au/wp- content/uploads/2017/11/Victorian-Parks-by-Premier.pdf Your direct support in the creation of the National Park in Mount Eliza would be much appreciated . Ihave been advised that Premier Andrews is supportive of/excited about new national parks and that Prime Minister Scott Morrison actually pledged millions for the enhancement of national parks in the northern territory and NSW during the election campaign but Victoria was absolutely neglected.
