Train Alert (Frankston line)

[ozrulestrace]

Apologies for late posting as no-one else has posted the www.metlinkmelbourne.com.au updates.

So tomorrow for Frankston line

Buses will replace trains between Mordialloc station and Frankston station all day Saturday, 4 August.

So if you check the website you'll get further details about the buses.

There is a choice of buses, the ones with bars on the windows are for the tattooed bogans (to make them feel at home)
the normal buses are for the normal people.
Stinger, as usual, has to ride in the Blue Bus wearing his white jacket, with strings on the sleeves,
that ties up at the back.

Thanks for the update. Replacement buses usually adds an extra 15 minutes to the journey. So much maintanaince work going on lately. Bring back the Saints Express!

most would probably just turn off at the Monash anyway wouldnt they? but still its a bit unfair, bayside saints fans get screwed over every week from what i hear.

They shut all the roads coming back into melbourne on a sunday arvo when there was a marathon or something last time I went down the peninsula. Why do they want to trap people in Frangers? That said I live in Caulfield North and could usually walk home before getting a train after the footy if you stay to hear the song.

The reason Peninsula Link was funded (and is nearly finished) was to eleviate the bottleneck of holiday traffic entering and exiting Frankston on Friday and Sunday nights.

You're probably referring to the International Ironman Championship which was based in Frankston and finished in St Kilda in March. Eastlink and some local roads around Frankston were closed but there was still Frankston Fwy, Nepean Highway and Wells Road. But a few people carried on as though they had never been stuck in traffic before. What did we ever do without Eastlink and how have we ever survived without Peninsula Link?

They closed east link and nepean then had all traffic trying to go around with no signs telling us where to go. I'm not going back until I can afford Lindsay's helicopter. What about us yuppies that want quick access home so we can quaff champagne to wind down before Monday. I'm quite frightened of low class people and it was a terrible affront to face up to the underside of Frankston.
