Mon.24.11.25 Metro X
10.11 Buses to replace trains between Werribee and Laverton (an equipment fault).  Eta over 60 min.  Laverton trains have delays.
- 10.21 eta 50 min.
- 10.32 & 11.15 eta 60 min
- 11.45 Buses are in operation, adding 30 min.
- May I ask the logic of having every bus stop at every station? Railway ave can't handle it and most of the passengers aren't needing to go to Aircraft
- We do have a mix of express and stopping all station buses in operation.
- Can you please advise if this issue will be rectified by tomorrow ?
- Our team is working to fix the damage caused by vandalism by tomorrow. Please check our website/app and X for the latest updates.

- Show us the photos of vandals and vandalism. Don't cover up Metro failures by excuses
