The development of public transport infrastructure in sprawling metropolitan areas is an important aspect of continued growth that needs to be sustained in the long term.
Funding for the Melbourne Metro Rail Project has been introduced by the City of Melbourne, as premier Daniel Andrews and minister for public transport Jacinta Allan announced $1.5billion has been put forward to aid the planning and early development of the initiative.
"Melbourne Metro Rail is the biggest public transport infrastructure project in Australia , and the biggest overhaul of our public transport system since the City Loop," said Mr Andrews in a 28 April statement.
Ms Allan pointed out that the project would help 20,000 additional people travel during peak traffic, which could be a massive benefit to commuters living in real estate in Bentleigh.
Full construction on the project is anticipated to get underway in 2018, revamping the public transport system in Melbourne and helping boost the city's overarching infrastructure.
