No More Connex In Melbourne

Melbourne commuters will be able to enjoy new trains and trams provider in December 2009. Connex & Yarra Trams have lost their bids in order to win another tender to run Melbourne's public transport.

The new train provider will be HongKong based company named Metro Trains Melbourne (MTM), which is actually Mass Transit Railway (MTR). Their track record is unbelievingly good at 99% reliability!

We don't have to worry about late trains or cancellations anymore?!

Not quite so! The state Government needs to put more fundings into the infranstructure of the rails in order for the operators to do their bid!

However, looking forward to see improvements on customer service, commuters friendly service and easiness to travel in the transport networks.
