A new strategy has been developed to advance Ipswich City’s transport network.

The government aims to convert the state’s 8,000-plus diesel and gas bus fleet to zero-emissions technology by 2047.

The Victorian scheme will allow young people to travel statewide on trains, trams, buses and coach services.

The breakthrough marks the beginning of 6,500 hours of train testing.

This includes Brisbane City Council’s fleet of 1,300 buses – the last of 18 operators to attach to the scheme.

More than 20,000 new readers will be installed across Victoria’s metropolitan and regional rail networks.
