Integrated Light Rail for Inner West Sydney

This week Jamie Parker MP gave notice of a motion in the NSW Parliament calling on the Government to extend light rail services in Sydney's Inner West to improve public transport options for thousands of residents who commute to the CBD and travel across the inner west.

Jamie will be campaigning for light rail services to be fully integrated into the public service network, including offering concession fares for students, pensioners and concession card holders. See a copy of the motion below.

FERRIES AT ANNANDALE AND WEST BALMAIN

Imagine hopping on a ferry at Annandale or West Balmain and being in the heart of the city within minutes.

In 2020, we won the campaign for a Glebe ferry. Now, we have the opportunity to connect more of our area to the ferry network. New ferries at Annandale and West Balmain will provide a faster, smarter route into the city without adding to the traffic on our roads.

Both Labor and the Liberals want to build more polluting and destructive tollways across Sydney. But we have costed a comprehensive plan for a world-class public transport system that makes getting around our city fast and easy.

Dear Transport Minister,

New inner west ferry services would provide efficient, fast and environmentally sound travel to and from the area for workers, tourists, students, pensioners and the general public.

I therefore ask that the Government build on the success of the Blackwattle Bay ferry and establish a ferry service at Rozelle Bay for the Annandale area and reinstate the ferry at West Balmain.
