Public transport fight rolls on (Hills Shire Times)

It's impossible not to like Leichhardt Mayor Jamie Parker .

For the second time this year, Mr Parker has come to the aid of the Hills and each time it concerned the proposed Sydney CBD Metro.

Mr Parker's council area is already well serviced by public transport and does not need any more a fact recognised by Leichhardt Council and the community, even people who don't live in the area.

Each time Mr Parker has supported the Hills, he has asked for the metro to be diverted to the Hills where we all know public transport is so desperately needed.

Hills Mayor Peter Dimbrowsky has joined Mr Parker in opposing the Sydney CBD Metro.

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.
