Four months out from the state election, Premier Jacinta Allan is facing a leadership challenge.

Factional powerbrokers met on Sunday night to discuss whether Ms Allan maintains the support of the caucus, and agreed she does not.

It is understood Ms Allan will be offered the opportunity to resign on Monday, and if she refuses, is expected to face a leadership challenge on Tuesday.

The Victorian government is extending its free public transport initiative for another month to include May.

Public transport fares across both metro and regional networks will then be half price from June 1 until the end of the year.

The initiative will cost about $432 million.
