The Allan Labor Government is focused on what matters most to families in Wendouree, real help with the cost of living and more investment in frontline services.

Free public transport for Ballarat students is great news for local families. Not only a saving for school days but weekends and school holiday trips to Melbourne and across regional Victoria.

We’re getting on with delivering this important project, which will make it easier for passengers to move between platforms. We thank the community for their patience while crews carry on this work, which will transform accessibility at the station.

The Allan Labor Government has unveiled the final designs for Ballarat Station which delivers a wide range of accessibility upgrades for passengers, while respecting the heritage of the transport precinct. The final designs will significantly improve accessibility of the station – making it easier for people with a disability, as well as passengers with prams and luggage, to get around the station and use public transport.

The Allan Labor Government has revealed the early designs for a $50 million upgrade to Ballarat Station to improve accessibility. The new plans released today include installing a pedestrian overpass with a passenger lift and stairs to both platforms.

The Allan Labor Government has kick-started production of Victoria’s new X’Trapolis 2.0 in Ballarat, supporting up to 150 direct jobs, and up to 750 local jobs across the supply chain.
