Hansard debates

Ms SHEED (Shepparton) — (Question 89) My constituency question is to the Minister for Public Transport. Shepparton currently has four passenger rail services to and from Melbourne each weekday, while Bendigo has 18 services to Melbourne and 21 back to Bendigo. A survey released last year found residents are, and I quote, 'extremely dissatisfied with the city's passenger rail services to and from Melbourne'. Can the minister advise what steps are being taken to engage the residents of the Shepparton district in the draft regional network development plan consultation process to provide a blueprint for an improvement in passenger rail services in the Shepparton region?
