Jamie Parker and Jenny Leong, Member for Newtown, made a joint submission in response to the latest Environmental Impact Statement for the the New M5, the section of toll road between Kingsgrove and St Peters.
A big thank you to the community groups and local residents who contributed a remarkable 9000 submissions to the Department of Planning by last Friday’s deadline!

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.
