The ongoing fuel crisis in Australia is significantly impacting residents in areas with limited access to public transport, such as Singh, who lives in a suburb ranked 20th on the Vampire index. In her community, only 13% of people have access to regular transport, forcing nearly 60% to drive to work. Urban planner Dodson notes that the lack of public transport is exacerbated by the dispersed nature of jobs, with only 20% located in central business districts. While Melbourne boasts one of the largest tram networks globally, it fails to reach many growing suburbs, particularly in the west where Singh resides. The city's radial transport networks do not adequately support cross-city travel, leaving many residents reliant on buses. The planned Suburban Rail Loop aims to address these issues but will not be completed for another decade, leaving residents like Singh in need of more immediate transport solutions.
