Extend the Gilbert Road Tram Line

​Route 11 currently travels from the city through Fitzroy and Northcote before terminating at the corner of Gilbert Road and Regent Street. ​Extending the tram along Gilbert Road to Reservoir would create a much stronger public transport connection through Melbourne's north and connect the tram network directly with Reservoir Station and the Reservoir activity centre.

​​

Extending Route 11 would do more than add a few kilometres of tram track.

It could create a direct public transport connection between Reservoir and communities along Gilbert Road, Northcote, Fitzroy and the city while creating an interchange with trains and buses at Reservoir.

​

I will fight for:

​

• A detailed feasibility and route study for extending Route 11 along Gilbert Road.

• A connection to Reservoir Station and the Reservoir activity centre.

• State Government funding to plan and deliver the extension.

• Integration with existing train and bus services.

• Safe and accessible tram stops along the route.

• Better walking and cycling connections around stops.
