Comments attributed to Shadow Minister for Public Transport David Hodgett:
Daniel Andrews said we’d seen the worst of the V/Line crisis yet commuters continue to be crammed into replacement road coaches as train cancellations continue.
It’s clear that regional public transport is not a priority for Daniel Andrews, who continues to support a Minister who’s clearly not up to the job.
Victorians deserve better and are fed-up of this chaos that has been going on for months.
The buck stops with Daniel Andrews, he needs to step in and fix this mess now.
