In the last few weeks we've been going through public transport upgrades for each Melbourne Legislative Assembly seat.
How to win votes with public transport explained why it's politically important. Good public transport can contribute to a kitchen table / hip pocket / how we live basic services agenda. Unlike many contentious social issues it is refreshingly non-ideological, so parties and candidates can advocate improvements without having to choose between appealing to religious or non-religious people. Also, unlike big infrastructure, boosting transit service is scaleable, targetable to many sites and fast to deliver with benefits possible well within one term.
The metropolitan overview in Part 1 listed 12 big service initiatives. These had metropolitan-wide benefits but were skewed to the marginal seats.
Part 2, Part 3, Part 4 and Part 5 went into seat by seat detail, starting with the more marginal seats.
To identify areas missing out on good service, and to compare service levels between suburbs, see Melbourne's updated interactive frequent service maps and after 10pm guides. These give a simple-at-a-glance view of where improved frequency is needed.
Below are two seat by seat indexes for easy referral. The first is a straight alphabetical index. The second is sorted by Legislative Council region. Of note is that some regions you might think of as being rural (especially Eastern Victoria) have a large outer Melbourne metropolitan component. Also notable is where the marginal seats are distributed - they are mostly an outer east and south thing plus some affluent 'southern metropolitan' seats.
