25.01.2022 Invest in high speed rail SMH letters 9/9/2020

24.01.2022 The NSW government is woeful in terms of shifting freight onto rail rather than dangerous, inefficient and unsustainable road trucking. The percentage share should be at least double what it is now but billions wasted on motorways instead has been top priority for this mob in power. https://www.smh.com.au//congestion-compounded-as-more-truc

21.01.2022 BROKEN PROMISE The Premier promised 'no more privatisations' yet is going to sell the rest of #WestCONnex. This article explains why it is such a bad decision.

19.01.2022 Walking - the best form of ecological transit, especially in busy downtown areas. https://www.smh.com.au//pedestrian-zone-to-be-extended-one

19.01.2022 The Premier must explain why her boardroom hosted property developers and a lobbyist seeking to upzone Canterbury-Bankstown. Please write to all members of both of the Legislative Assembly and Legislative Council urging accountability for the actions of the NSW Government.

16.01.2022 The Inner West Light Rail is a great success story. It shows you can build light rail that is relatively low impact without being massively over-engineered like the CSELR. https://www.smh.com.au//four-new-trams-promised-for-sydney

16.01.2022 Cumberland City Council has agreed to study the feasibility of the Pippita Rail Trail (Active Transport Corridor) proposal. What do you think? Complete the community survey for Pippita at: https://restoreinnerwestline.org.au/pippita/

15.01.2022 Fast rail - great project to lead a post-COVID post-carbon recovery. https://www.smh.com.au//new-fast-rail-push-to-get-seq-s-po

10.01.2022 Germany's far right is against Berlin's pop-up bike lanes, even though 43% of Berliners don't even own a car. The pop-ups here should be made permanent. https://www.exberliner.com//red-flag-pop-up-bike-lanes-afd/

10.01.2022 NSW government ignores its own inquiry's recommendations. https://www.change.org/p/restore-inner-west-lin/u/27859832

10.01.2022 High speed rail would be a great project to lead us out of the COVID19 economic slump and help reduce Australia's unsustainably high transport emissions. https://www.smh.com.au//build-new-projects-instead-of-spee

09.01.2022 Grattan Institute report argues: ...governments would get more bang for their buck by upgrading existing infrastructure. https://www.smh.com.au//herd-of-white-elephants-government

07.01.2022 Just when we should be reducing fares... https://www.smh.com.au//opal-fares-set-to-jump-for-thousan

05.01.2022 DON'T SELL WESTCONNEX! The Berejiklian government wants to privatise the whole of the WestCONnex tollroad. This is wrong. Our taxes paid to build it, so why should the tolls be funnelled to a private company? Any private operator will only increase tolls and want to build even more tollroads. Sydney deserves world class public transport instead. SEND A LETTER - use our template to tell the Premier - don't sell WestCONnex:... https://actionnetwork.org/letters/dont-sell-westconnex https://www.smh.com.au//nsw-government-to-sell-remaining-w

04.01.2022 There are many stations across the Sydney Trains network that would benefit greatly from have an additional entrance. When public transport is within walking distance, more people use it.

03.01.2022 Bad news for public transport - evidence shows that ride-hailing services increase private car use at the expense of public transport. Remember Andrew Constance's proclamation that "In 10 to 15 years’ time government will not be in the provision of transport services". That's where this is headed. https://www.uber.com/en-AU/newsroom/sydneypt

01.01.2022 NSW regional train services are in disarray. Rebuilding our rail would be a great post-COVID recovery project, if only our leaders had vision.
