Extra bus transport services to and from the Shrine of Remembrance for this year’s Anzac Day Dawn Service.
More than 50 additional buses will be in service to transport passengers along 12 Melbourne routes, including selected RSLs, to make sure they arrive at the Shrine before the 6am ceremony.
The bus services will pick up and drop off passengers from routes starting at Williamstown.
Veterans and War Widows can travel for free in economy class on Victoria’s public transport network on April 23, 24 and 25 April.
Free travel is also extended to Australian Defence Force members, Scouts and Guides and school students on Anzac Day as long as they are in uniform.
Public transport minister Ben Carroll said: “After a disrupted couple of years, we are ensuring people across the state can pay their respects and honour those who have bravely served our country.”
“In addition to the extra 50 buses to and from the Dawn Service, there will be extra services across the network to connect Victorians to a number of ANZAC Day sporting events.”
