Title: Melbourne's public transport cistern in crisis
Author(s): Fisher, Frank
Abstract: Planning reliable travel with Connex's facilities is nigh impossible. Governments can maintain toilet infrastructure to permit citizens to live mobile lives with dignity intact. The failure of government and Connex to recognise the extra cost needed to maintain toilets in the face of vandalism, indicates blindness to the most basic human needs of their voting, taxpaying customers, writes Frank Fisher.
