2. Assessing how railway assets are performing
Conclusion
Metro maintains and renews railway infrastructure and technology sufficiently to support train service punctuality and reliability and minimise passenger injuries.
However, the department does not have an overarching performance measurement and reporting framework for the $6.2 billion agreement. As a result, it does not effectively monitor Metro’s performance in maintaining and renewing these assets. The department also does not check if Metro’s asset maintenance and renewal works will support train service performance into the future.
