Hi, I’m Kat Theophanous - the Labor Member of Parliament for Northcote in the Victorian Legislative Assembly.
Did you know there is a transport transformation happening in Melbourne’s north east?
The Andrews Labor Government is planning for the future of our suburbs – we’re building big, modernising our networks and changing the way we move around.
Metro Tunnel will take pressure off the City Loop so more trains can run to and from our suburbs.
Level Crossing Removals in Coburg, Preston and Alphington are unlocking open space and creating faster, safer journeys for everyone.
The Chandler Highway Bridge is now 6 lanes instead of two – a massive project that is making life easier for tens of thousands every day.
The Mernda Line has been extended and the Hurstbridge Line has been duplicated to cater to more passengers.
North East Link will reduce congestion on our local roads and get heavy vehicle traffic out of our suburbs.
The Suburban Rail Loop will create new connections to link our suburbs to jobs, schools and universities without travelling to the CBD.
New walking and cycling paths, as well as new open spaces are being created across these projects – making the most of every opportunity!
New stations, roads, bridges and paths are being cleverly and environmentally designed to meet the needs of our growing suburbs. We’re building high quality, sustainable and enduring infrastructure that will see us through the decades to come.
