Any information on how much money these new exits are contributing to the already outrageous amount of taxpayers money that has been wasted on myki?
So you would have been happy with the money spent on keeping the out of date metcard system going?

I like Myki because it means I don't have to sell tickets in an environment where I previously had to. From a commuter point of view, it's a debacle. Fancy not being able to buy a ticket from an unmanned station, tram, or bus.
Strathmore Platform 2 has a new exit, fenced off but with working validator. No idea why it has not been opened.Apparently the new exits cannot be opened until CCTV coverage is extended to cover the next exits, in addition to upgraded lighting.
7.6.4 Security Security systems that shall be provided at the station entrance include: a) CCTV coverage to maximise passenger safety and asset protection;
Also, Work Safe Victoria has closed the exit at the down end of Lilydale.Presumably because there is some small chance of being hit by a shunting train?
If or when a second track arrives at Lilydale from Mooroolbark, there would then be a need to redesign the track layout. One option might be to build a new platform where the rarely used and unwired 4 road is, discontinue using platform 1 and remove the track (but without altering the actual building), then link the platforms with a footbridge, the ends of which are in each carpark but outside the paid areas on each side, like the one at Alphington for example. It should be possible to do that without removing the old goods shed, which could actually become a feature of the new platform.If you grade separated the level crossing you could re-align the tracks without having to build more platforms.

I forgot to mention that there are still a few posts with silver plinths at Ringwood platform 3.
