Yarra Trams operates Melbourne’s iconic tram network, the world’s largest, and plays a critical role in keeping the city moving. With more than 20 million passenger trips taken each year, Yarra Trams connects thousands of people with places every day. Now proudly operated by Yarra Journey Makers (YJM), a joint venture between Transdev Australia and John Holland, and partnering with the Department of Transport and Planning, transport agencies and operators, YJM is leading one of the most significant transport modernisation programs in Australia. With a deep commitment to safety, sustainability, and delivering a world-class passenger experience, there is now significant focus from the board and executive to establish a formal enterprise risk framework. This will support a shift from a reactive to a more strategic and proactive approach to managing non-safety related risks.
