This dashboard explores public transport patronage in Victoria. It highlights station entries, daily travel patterns, and monthly trends across different transport modes to show how people use the Melbourne's public transport network.
Station patronage concentrates heavily in the inner city, with the ten busiest stops spanning the City Loop and key suburban gateways.
Each station's annual entries over the past two financial years- size highlights current volume while colour shows growth direction.
Use the slider to surface quieter stops. Points above the dashed line outperformed last year while those below lost patronage.
Heatmap reveals weekday peaks, surfacing callouts for March's mid-week surge, the December holiday dip, and weekends where Saturdays outpace Sundays. January has no normal weekday data for Monday or Tuesday because all of those days fall within the school holidays.
Allows for quick identification of patterns across different days and months. Allowing for governing bodies to add or remove services accordingly.
Monthly lines show long-term trends and pandemic affect. The stacked view highlights how transport modes share the passenger load.
Key insights to guide further exploration across the dashboard.
