Users Guide to the Principal Public Transport Network
Melbourne 2030, the State Government’s plan to preserve Melbourne’s liveability, sets out the Principal Public Transport Network (PPTN). The PPTN is a high quality public transport network that connects the Principal, Major and Specialised Activity Centres. It contains all train and tram routes as well as selected bus routes which are to be progressively rolled out as SmartBus services. The PPTN, together with local feeder services, provides for a comprehensive, efficient and networked public transport system for the metropolitan area.
Now a new interactive online map has been developed to help you get more information about the PPTN in your area.
