Jamie calls on the Transport Minister to confirm Greenway funding

Jamie has been a long time supporter of better transport integration and has previously called on the Government to extend light rail services in Sydney’s Inner West to improve public transport options for thousands of residents.

This week Jamie asked the Minister for Transport to confirm the allocation of budget for the proposed Greenway – an integrated transport link for cyclists and walkers as part of the broader light rail extension. Although confirming a commitment to the light rail, the Minister failed to guarantee funding for the Greenway. Jamie will continue to advocate for this crucial project.

Watch Jamie's question and hear the Transport Minister's answer.

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.
