Allens advises State on long-term maintenance agreement for Victorian Regional Rolling Stock

Allens has advised the Department of Transport and Planning (Vic) and V/Line Corporation (together, the State) on the procurement of the new Regional Rolling Stock Maintenance Contract for the maintenance services on the regional fleet.

V/Line is Victoria’s regional public transport operator, providing regional train and bus services which are critical to connecting communities and business across the state and supporting the growth of regional Victoria. The new Regional Rolling Stock Maintenance Contract modernises the maintenance arrangements of the regional fleet.

Partner David Donnelly, who led the Allens team, said: ‘We are delighted to have worked with the State on this important contract for regional Victoria. The new Regional Rolling Stock Maintenance Contact represents a step-change in the performance outcomes and future-proofing of the maintenance requirement of the fleet for years to come.’

‘We congratulate the State and the incoming maintainer, Alstom, on reaching this important milestone, and wish them the best of luck with the maintenance phase.’
