History

Most of the line currently used by route 70 was initially built and run by the Hawthorn Tramways Trust in 1916–17. It ran between the Batman Avenue terminus (opposite Flinders Street Station) to the intersection of Warrigul Road (then Boundary Road) and Riversdale Road. At the time, the HTT's Batman Avenue line was Melbourne's only electric tram line that reached the CBD. The Melbourne and Metropolitan Traways Board took over the line in 1920, and in 1928, extended the line a further 2 kilometers to Wattle Park at the Riversdale Road and Elgar Road intersection. [3] The track was extended a further to 1.9 kilometres to Wattle Park on 1 July 1928, by which stage it had been taken over by the Melbourne & Metropolitan Tramways Board.[4] In 1934, the line was given the Route 70 designation, which it still holds today. [4][5]

On 6 June 1999 it was diverted to operate via the Exhibition Street extension with a four-lane divided road built over the Jolimont Yard, enabling Batman Avenue west of Melbourne Park to be closed with route 70 extended to terminate at the intersection of Flinders and Spencer Streets. This new route was better able to serve all of the Melbourne Park venues such as the MCG and Rod laver Arena. Extra sidings were also built along the route in order to accommodate special events.[6][7] On 5 January 2005, Route 70 was extended to Docklands Stadium, coinciding with the opening of the Docklands Drive tramway. Finally, on 20 September 2009, Route 70 was extended along Docklands Drive to its current route, where it terminates at Waterfront City.
