Western Sydney 2030 - Not Much On Buses!

We have found a website which is concerned of everyday lively hood of our population for the future. Provided is the basics as to they are on about:

Western Sydney is a patchwork of people and communities, reflecting much of Australia's diversity and experience.

From towns nestled in a World Heritage Area to agricultural lands, industrial areas, low and medium density residential areas, and major business centres, Western Sydney residents hail from the four corners of the globe, bringing to Sydney and Australia a diversity of cultural and personal experiences.

It's about time we all had a say in how our lives and communities will be in twenty years' time and beyond. That's why Western Sydney Regional Organisation of Councils (WSROC) has created this website to allow the people who live in Western Sydney to put forward a vision for how Western Sydney should be in 2030.

Through this web site we are asking people to tell us of their hopes, dreams and aspirations for the future. Our expert panel will turn that information into an integrated picture of what life could be like in Western Sydney.

That way the people of Western Sydney will be able to see clearly whether or not policy proposals and promises made by politicians will make life better or not.
Here is a link to their website- where you can answer a quick survey:
This is a good reason why we as a group have have fought for the people of Mount Druitt. Where bus services were removed or deleted from our community by political decisions that took us to the dark ages of when bus services were firstly and introduced with the area. I personally think that political decisions were made not from the heart and they know Mount Druitt people would be easy - they will not complain they will accept the extreme change of services.
What the politicians didn't realise is that people have feelings and emotions and once you take away essential services from every day lives - you have just downgraded these people's lives, in some cases lives changed not knowing what to do, adding costs and time to get to their destinations. We as a group are upgrading people's lives to where they should be today, we will even go further and ensure the politicians affect the lives of Mount Druitt dramatically!
My added comments on buses:

AS Chairperson of a group trying to return bus services removed /deleted from within Mount Druitt - I think the government has gone backward - the plan should be now to increase bus services not wait for a long time for this to happen - The community needs proper transport and we need to promote more car off the road get community members into cheaper public/private transport - this also brings make the air less pollutant as well - less fumes in the air!Reply Reply with quote Quote
