Free public transport offers little relief in Melbourne’s west, says Legalise Cannabis MP David Ettershank, citing poor access, unreliable buses and overcrowded trains.

David asks Minister for Public and Active Transport for clear timelines on Melton electrification and new Mount Atkinson and Thornhill Park stations.

David calls for Altona North train station by 2030 to accommodate rapid growth, as backed by Infrastructure Victoria.

David raises community concerns that removing a key freight route will result in more traffic congestion and pollution in Melbourne’s West.
