Public Transport Victoria (PTV) in partnership with Yarra Trams will be installing underground cables to feed the enhanced power supply into the tram network on Wattletree Road in Armadale.

This month we celebrate the anniversary of the New Preston Depot project, Australia’s largest redevelopment of an operational heritage site. CEO, Nicolas Gindt and Minister for Public Transport, Jacinta Allan MP officially opened the depot.

Did you know that Melbourne’s Yarra Trams is the largest operating tram network in the world? With more than 200 million passenger trips taken each year, Yarra Trams connects thousands of people with places every day.

Yarra Trams delivered 98.30 per cent of services in April with 80.90 per cent of services arriving on time. April was a challenging month for tram operations in part due to unseasonably high rainfall levels. Heavy rain slows down road traffic which affects tram services, as well as causing slippery tracks.
