Principal Public Transport Network

Maps showing the Principal Public Transport Network (PPTN) area.

The PPTN area maps identify land within 400 metres of key existing and future transport across Melbourne. There are 33 maps covering 31 municipalities.

The PPTN area maps are incorporated in the Victoria Planning Provisions (VPP) at Clause 72.04 as Principal Public Transport Network Area Maps (State Government of Victoria, August 2018) and referenced in the Planning Policy Framework of the VPP.

The PPTN area maps enable the strategic planning and integration of public transport with activity centres, employment and residential development. The PPTN area maps also support statutory functions under the Parking Overlay in some planning schemes.
