In reply to  Mr RICH-PHILLIPS (South Eastern Metropolitan) (29 October 2019)

Ms ALLAN (Bendigo East—Leader of the House, Minister for Transport Infrastructure):

The Baxter Electrification Business Case has been provided to the Commonwealth Government for their consideration.

The Victorian Government is investing $3 Billion on improvements on the Frankston rail line to run more trains more often.

These investments are a precursor for a potential future extension of the line to Baxter.

The Victorian Government will continue to work with the Commonwealth on opportunities for them to invest in our major transport infrastructure projects, including improvements to the Frankston and Stony Point rail corridors.
