Melbourne tram route 86 is a tram route on the Melbourne tramway network serving the city of Melbourne in Victoria, Australia.Operated by Yarra Trams, the route is coloured yellow and extends from Bundoora RMIT to Waterfront City over 22.2-kilometre (13.8 mi) of double track via Reservoir, Preston, Thornbury, Northcote, Clifton Hill, Collingwood, Fitzroy, East Melbourne and Bourke Street.
It covers the suburbs of Alphington, Fairfield, Northcote, Thornbury, and part of Preston. It lies on the northern bank of the Yarra River between the Merri and Darebin creeks. The seat was created in 1927 as a replacement for Jika Jika, and has been a safe Labor seat for most of its existence. It has only been held by seven members.
A map dated to 1893 indicated a "Merri Merri Creek", which was shortened later to "Merri Creek." Some believe it means “very rocky” or “very stony” to symbolise the volcanic history of the site. The phrase is said to originate from the Woiwurrung language, but its authenticity is disputed by historians and Indigenous Elders. [3]
