Outer Eastern Councils support the Rowville Rail Line:
The Eastern Transport Coalition (ETC) - a coalition of seven outer eastern councils; Manningham, Yarra Ranges, Maroondah, Whitehorse, Monash, Dandenong and Knox, which combined represent almost 1 million residents support the need for the Rowville Rail Line.
The Eastern Transport Coalition was launched in 2006 and released a brochure outlining its key requests which include the need for the Rowville rail line to link Knox with the employment and educational areas of Monash and central Melbourne.

Rowville Rail Pre-Feasibility Report:
In 2004 Knox City Council commissioned a pre-feasibility report into the Rowville rail line. The report was commissioned to place pressure on the government to deliver its promise of completing a feasibility analysis of the Rowville Rail Line - a promise unfulfilled since 1999.
The Knox Council Pre-Feasibility Study found that the Rowville rail line is viable and warranted further attention.
Most importantly it uncovered that very little land acquisition would be required and ultimately that only a rail line would provide Monash and Knox with the investment needed to stimulate continued business growth.
