  1. Now taking bets: will Hell freeze over before the Box Hill Bus Station escalator is fixed?

    Apparently nobody knows when this will be back in service. Transport Victoria don't know and the shopping centre have no timeline.

  6. Coming up to the one week anniversary since the Box Hill Bus Station escalator broke down.

    Again.

    No signs of it being fixed and no communication from Transport Victoria or Vicinity Centres.

  7. Once again the escalator at the Box Hill Bus Station has broken down.

    This time it's the escalator going up, which also means that passengers can't use the stairs. This only leaves the single lift at the opposite end of the shopping centre that is slow, dirty and - at best - fits six people.

    This is completely inadequate for one of the busiest bus interchanges in the entire state of Victoria.

    I've updated the counter accordingly.

  8. It's coming up to a month since this escalator broke - the only one coming down from Box Hill Bus Station.

    The only alternative route is much longer, down a poorly-lit and unpleasant staircase, or in a tiny and slow lift.

    Thousands of people use this bus interchange every day and even when everything is working it's a pretty poor passenger experience. When things like this do break at a major stop like this one it's essential to fix it with the haste it deserves.
