For the first time MOS expands its horizon past Asia to Downunder! The chosen city is Melbourne, wellknow worldwide for its strong and long history of Graffiti!
Melbourne is the capital and most populous city in the Australian state of Victoria, and the second most populous city in Australia and Oceania. The name “Melbourne” refers to the area of urban agglomeration spanning 9,900 km2 which comprises the broader metropolitan area, as well as being the common name for its city centre. Melbourne consists of 31 municipalities and has a population of 4.4 millions as of 2013. Its inhabitants are called Melburnians.
The Melbourne rail network is based on a commuter rail model rather than a rapid transit model, with a focus on services at peak periods. A rapid transit system for Melbourne is currently in planning stages.
Melbourne’s suburban railway network consists of 16 electrified lines, the central City Loop subway, and 207 stations, with a total length of 372 km of electrified lines. The suburban network operates between approximately 5:00 a.m. and midnight. In 2013โ14 the rail network recorded 232 million passenger trips.
