Leichhardt Council backs skatepark (Inner West Courier)

SKATERS were kickflipping for joy last week, after Leichhardt Council resolved to support their quest to see a skatepark built in Callan Park. Councillors resolved to put the idea forward as part of the ongoing masterplanning process for the Callan Park site. Council is due to vote on the masterplan in December.

Fifteen-year-old Rohan Cruz has been spearheading the campaign for the facility, and more than 600 skaters have joined a facebook group calling for it to be built.

Leichhardt Mayor Jamie Parker said he was personally committed to seeing a skatepark built in the municipality.

Not at the expense of losing so many trees!

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.
