5 minute Metro Tunnel frequencies due to the marathon (of course there’s some kind of delay in one direction so there’s two trains scheduled to arrive at the same time)

A feed of accounts that talk about public transport and infrastructure in Australia (mostly Naarm/Melbourne) Please let me know if you want in or out. And would it kill you to like it?
Extra PT for today's Marathon, including Metro tunnel trains running every 5 mins much of the day. In 2010 organisers said: "public transport is not an option" - back then the first trains didn't reach the city until 8am. In 2026: "We highly suggest that all competitors take public transport"🏃👍
The Last Tram out of Sandhurst's almost Gone. A Cold Chisel tribute act does Khe Sanh on board Y1 class saloon tram no 610 preparing to run a charter trip. It's gonna be a great night for that lot tonight. (Sound up).
A City Loved by God #howgood
What’s this trick from NSW Planning Minister Scully, referring @cityofsydney.bsky.social Town Hall Sq to Independent Planning Comm (IPC)? Of course IPC were approval body for huge coal mine - what’s their skill base?
Wearing this hat today as a small tribute to Robert Dow - he gave it to me a few years ago. I first met him in 2011 in Brisbane - he introduced me to then Qld transport minister Annastacia Palaszczuk and some Translink people as his Melbourne equivalent. danielbowen.com/2011... Go well Robert.

Ridiculous obstruction by Bayside Council in Sydney to try to stymie our democratic rights to protest, in a public park. The justified protest is against a hulking data centre shoved hard on the banks of the Cooks River. If the Councillors had any sense they should be standing with the protesters!
