Colleen Hartland - Question in parliament: I have been approached by a number of people in the past week asking me to request that the Minister for Public Transport consider putting extra services on the Werribee train line while major work occurs over the next 18 months on the Bolte Bridge and Tullamarine Freeway.
Obviously congestion is quite extreme and a lot of cars are having to come through Footscray. There need to be extra services — buses and trains — to accommodate that and make up for the fact that people will not be able to drive or it will take them a considerable amount of extra time.
I ask the minister to consider putting extra, adequate and frequent services on the Werribee line.
