Added weekend services for Seymour line

The government has also announced that nine return services will run on the Shepparton line every weekday, and five will run on Saturdays and Sundays.

"We’re putting our expanded network to work — delivering more services, more often across the network,“ Public and Active Transport Minister Gabrielle Williams said.

Meanwhile, the free travel initiative has been extended into May, and public transport commuters will see half-price fares from Monday, June 1.

“Half-price trains and more train services will save you money and time,” Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan said.
