The Public Transport Party (PTP) was an Australian political party that contested the 1985 Victorian state election.
The party was formed in February 1985 as a result of protests from Labor Party rank-and-file members over the Cain government's reversal of public transport policies.
[1][2] At the election, the party contested three seats in the Legislative Assembly − Knox (the seat of transport minister Steve Crabb), Melbourne and Prahran.
Their best result came in Melbourne, where they won 6.9% of the vote.
