Eddington Transport Report, Victoria
"Investing in Transport–East West Link Needs Assessment" was a major transport study undertaken in Victoria, Australia, by infrastructure consultant Sir Rod Eddington to propose improvements to transport links between the eastern and western suburbs of Melbourne. The report was commissioned in 2006 by the Government of Victoria following the model of the Eddington Transport Study in the United Kingdom and was released in April 2008.〔"$18b vision to get us moving", ''Herald Sun'', 3 April 2008, pg 4.〕〔"$18bn to link east and west - Motorists, rail users to face new tolls and higher fares for an easier commute", ''The Age'', 3 April 2008, pg 1.〕 Eddington's report recommended new road and rail tunnels, further rail network electrification and improved cycle and bus routes in a bid to reduce congestion. Some of the report's recommendations were implemented by the Brumby Labor government, but many others remain unfunded.
==Background==
In May 2006 the Victorian Government announced that as part of its "Meeting Our Transport Challenges" action plan, it had appointed Eddington–then reviewing Britain's transport system for the Blair Government–to head an independent investigation into the best transport solutions for connecting Melbourne's eastern and western suburbs.〔"Plans to relieve transport chaos", ''Sunday Herald Sun'', 14 May 2006, pg 10.〕 The government's brief noted that the majority of east-west traffic in the city was carried on just two links, the Monash and Eastern freeways, which were both heavily congested at peak periods. The corridor and surrounding arterial roads were under heavy pressure from strong suburban expansion and rapid growth in freight transport from the Port of Melbourne. The briefing said the Monash-CityLink route was expected to reach full capacity within 20 years. It also highlighted the need for further improvements to public transport, including increased cross-town bus services and a boost to rail capacity.〔"Investing In Transport–East West Link Needs Assessment: Overview", Victorian Government, 2008, pgs 10-12.〕
