Earlier this month, the Victorian government flipped the switch on the long-awaited Metro Tunnel, integrating the $14bn infrastructure project into Melbourne’s public transport network.
On 1 February, the Cranbourne, Pakenham and Sunbury lines moved out of the city loop and began running exclusively through the Metro Tunnel. At the same time, the Frankston line returned to the loop. The changes have been dubbed the “big switch” by the government.
