Mildura Rail Feasibility Study Final Report AECOM V/Line's 2008/2009 annual report states: V/Line coach patronage grew faster than V/Line rail patronage in 2008/09 (16.7 percent compared to 9.5 percent); and V/Line coach patronage increased to 1.12 million trips compared to 12.05 million by train. V/Line’s most recent annual report states: V/Line coach and rail patronage slowed in 2009/2010 (2.2 percent compared to 4.4 percent); and V/Line coach patronage increased to 1.4 million trips compared to 12.6 million by train. Short and long-distance V/Line services have enjoyed equal proportionate growth since 2005/2006. This is shown in Figure 24. The recent dropping off of long-distance patronage growth is mostly due to the closure of the Albury line at Seymour for gauge conversion works, which has both caused a patronage decline and seen the remaining Albury passengers classified as short-distance Seymour customers. Figure 24: Patronage trends on short and long distance V/Line services The main contributors to this patronage trend are understood to be: Improved service planning; Reduced fares from 2007. V/Line fares have been cut in real terms, increased in value with the inclusion of metropolitan public transport and regional bus connections, and all Mildura services have become off-peak; and Increased petrol prices. 3.4.2 Patronage trends on Mildura corridor services Looking specifically at patronage on selected services to, from and in the Mildura corridor (shown in Table 17), the following trends are evident: The upgrading of Swan Hill services in 2006 has been successful with patronage more than doubling on this route; 7 October 2010 34
