An update on Arden Station

[@markjones2781]

For me, the word is anticipation. I'm getting old, and I just want to ride the line., step off at the stations, hear the announcements ring out. Call me a PT infrastructure nerd if you like, but I just want to see it happen. 🙂

[@kookies63]

I love PT too ❤

[@Ryan-R372]

It’s PTV

[@martythemartian99]

Looks very good. Australian cities really need this kind of public transport infrastructure, and I say this as a truck and bus driver. Greetings from SA. I find this very inspiring. 😁

[@albertytube5547]

I am really excited to ride on the tunnel, hope that it will be completed soon

[@veaniecar3507]

It's looking great, love the bricked entrance, those drum lights look great. 🤩

[@troyconnolly9053]

Stunning modern architecture.

[@philosophyfraillon9362]

Looks great! My favourite design of the metro tunnel stations.

[@Mackarony5]

Absolutely incredible!!

[@mikecairnduff]

Great design! ❤

[@Tadd-qo1xx]

That is a good looking station!

[@JTRAIN]

Absolutely amazing.

[@KotaruKun91]

Great work team

[@alexlanning712]

All those doubters, are now eating humble pie

[@Zergcerebrates]

When will this open to the public ?

[@saragipton9896]

Looks great but sad that the 'North Melbourne Royal Blue' not used to create a sense of place. An opportunity lost.

[@fleachamberlain1905]

"Learnings"? Do you mean lessons? Or knowledge?

[@shaunmckenzie5509]

No

[@peterhoz]

1:50 Middle Footscray has been renamed?

[@TomIsQuestionable]

Probably shortened on the display as it is a quick description of the service that needs to fit with the added stuff of “not stopping at” and such

[@victorianvlogzooooooo]

@@TomIsQuestionablelike east pakenham, the hcmts call em "E Pakenham"

[@bentshuang9062]

Don’t know how long would it be before some Borgan sabotages it ?

[@alvinlin2598]

The dummy train info screen at 1:44 says Middle Footscray Station will be skipped for limited express, though not West Footscray...I hope they aren't serious about that?

[@angusmorris4154]

Some trains will terminate early at West Footscray, that’s why they added a third platform.

[@tsoekmanyiu8580]

Look better than Perth ‘s

[@kevinjennings3203]

Couldn't they have done something other than raw concrete?

[@martythemartian99]

May be different when complete... perhaps?

[@Melbournelost66]

On the cheap!

[@waryaaofficialchannel3323]

Is Sydney or Melbourne

[@themosterstoster7587]

read the channel name

[@russelldavies1423]

Yet we still have a bus to the Airport.. Victorian by name Victorian by nature 😂

[@angusmorris4154]

Theyre building an airport rail line

[@mikelee9137]

@@angusmorris4154 the state government doesn't seem to know that, and the Airport owners don't seem to want them to!

[@dorothybutton9656]

Just don’t use that station if you are critical. Plenty of passengers will be pleased and proud to use this new network better than anything else built in Australia.

[@sandrafowler6717]

Don't care for the Metro Rail Tunnel, its just going to be a inconvenience for passengers on the Pakenham and Cranbourne lines because trains won't be going into South Yarra and Richmond, they would have to change trains at Caulfield to a already crowded train that's from Frankston that's not good for disabled and elderly.

[@CPTE5069]

If you're concerned about crowding on down Frankston services just change at Flinders st.

[@Melbournelost66]

I just saw Victoria Cross station preview in Sydney, looks beautiful. Here in Victoria its on the cheap and ugly. More cheap polished concrete. Typical.

[@sinatoomaga3721]

😮

[@CHRISLAW-g8h]

Graffiti comes next

[@Melbdav]

Station itself at the top, looks like a Chinese mausoleum from the Empress of China

[@anthonywalsh2164]

No where near as classy as Sydney Metro stations. It’s disappointing, like something from the 70s.

[@mikelee9137]

Hmmm. platform areas look okay, but the entrance - it just looks like a big, ugly, temporary rain shelter - boring and hideous! Almost looking forward to the graffiti - almost

[@dmystify1381]

there was nothing wrong with arden st in the first place.

[@RJM56]

What the heck are you on about?

[@slambotv1334]

There was no Arden station before??

[@Bondopoulos]

What an ugly crappy design. Go see China's and Russia's metro station designs. They are beautiful.

[@handyandyaus]

Why don't you some have pride in what Australian tradies have created? Sheesh.

[@longboardfella5306]

True I have been to both - but you should also say that both were built under dictatorships with no accountability for expenditure. This is paid by us citizens in Victoria and I don’t think it’s going to be crappy at all

[@veaniecar3507]

people here are whinging about the fact the government is even putting these stations in despite the obvious fact our city desperately needs it, can you imagine if they used anything fancier than concrete!!! pffft

[@uriituw]

Troll.
