==Transport== The main arterial running through Plenty is Yan Yean Road. Increased pressure is being placed on this road as it is used primarily by commuters travelling between the City and new estates in [[Doreen, Victoria|Doreen]] and surrounds, including Laurimar. Severe congestion is experienced during peak hours and it is often difficult to enter Plenty from Memorial Drive and River Avenue heading towards the City (traditional access routes). Throughout 2018 and 2019, Yan Yean Road was upgraded from a single-lane rural road into a two-lane divided Arterial Road, with traffic lights installed at Memorial Drive, River Avenue, and Browns Lane. This has greatly improved access for local residents of Plenty and improved congestion on Yan Yean Road.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Yan Yean Road Upgrade|date=7 December 2021 |url=https://roadprojects.vic.gov.au/projects/yan-yean-road-upgrade}}</ref> Three metropolitan bus routes run along Yan Yean Rd. Since October 2010, [[SmartBus]] route 901 links Plenty with [[Melbourne Airport|Melbourne Airport (T4)]], [[Broadmeadows, Victoria|Broadmeadows]], [[Epping, Victoria|Epping]], [[South Morang, Victoria|South Morang]] ([[Westfield Plenty Valley|Plenty Valley]]), [[Greensborough, Victoria|Greensborough]], [[Ringwood, Victoria|Ringwood]], and [[Frankston, Victoria|Frankston]]. It runs via Yan Yean Road, stopping at the Plenty Store/Plenty Fire Station every 15 minutes, much increasing the public transport connections in this area.<ref>{{cite PTV route|901}}</ref> The nearest train stations are [[Diamond Creek railway station|Diamond Creek]] or [[Greensborough railway station|Greensborough]], on the [[Hurstbridge railway line|Hurstbridge line]], and [[South Morang railway station|South Morang]], on the [[Mernda railway line|Mernda line]].
