COMMUTERS will experience lengthy delays on the Werribee and Williamstown lines this morning due to a track fault at Newport.
Buses are replacing trains on the Williamstown line between Williamstown and Footscray while the fault is being investigated.
Metro spokesman Daniel Hoare said 30 buses have been ordered, but delays of 30 minutes were expected.
"Due to the signal fault we've got crews working to establish where the fault is," Mr Hoare said.
Mr Hoare said it was unknown how long services will be suspended for.
All city-bound Werribee services will run via the Altona Loop line, and outbound services will run direct from Newport to Laverton.
Meanwhile, Cranbourne, Frankston and Pakenham city-bound customers are told to expect delays of up to 15 minutes due to a train fault at South Yarra.

V/Line spokesman Colin Tyrus said the track fault was also causing delays of up to 20 minutes on Geelong services.
"The journey may take 15 to 20 minutes longer at this stage," he said.
"Delays affected the first V/Line service of the day from Geelong at 5am."
Mr Tyrus said there were earlier delays of up to 60 minutes on Geelong services, but they are now down to 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, a semi-trailer that has tipped over on the South Gippsland Freeway is causing minor delays for motorists.
The back half of the semi-trailer tipped in the centre medium strip inbound just before the Princes Hwy in Dandenong South about 7am.
It is believed a car and the semi-trailer collided on the freeway, causing it to tip over.
Ambulance Victoria spokesman Paul Bentley said a woman was treated at the scene with minor injuries and emotional distress.
She was later taken to the Royal Melbourne Hospital in a stable condition.
The condition of the driver is currently unknown.
A collision in West Melbourne on the Bolte Bridge involving a truck and several cars is also causing traffic delays.
