Heritage group Bendigo Heritage has asked for a study on bringing trams back to the city's public transport. The tram network closed in 1972, more than 50 years ago.

AustraliaBendigo's bus network review will consider this proposal. If approved for study, it could eventually change how visitors and residents access the city's cultural and health services.
