Victoria’s myki upgrade is delayed until 2028, over budget, and facing criticism over its cost and benefits.
Victoria’s $2.8 billion myki ticketing upgrade is 18 months behind schedule and $136 million over budget, according to a Victorian Auditor-General’s report.
The project, aimed at introducing tap-and-go payments and account-based ticketing, faced delays due to unrealistic timelines, unresolved contract issues, and lack of a proper benefit plan.
A trial of the new system has begun on select lines, but full rollout is now expected by mid-2028.
The government says the upgrade will improve access and reduce fraud, though the auditor questioned its value given low existing fare evasion rates.
Work paused due to policy changes, including free travel for under-18s.
