i really don't think GPT should cut the rail, it's such a dumb move, like how are they meant to get people into town when they cut the rail? buses? if i was to catcha buse from waratah to town now it takes half an hour, by train it takes ten minutes! the fact that GPT won't listen to any alternative ideas leaves me to believe something is not right.
GPT should look at this video and withdraw its demand to remove the rail from Newcastle.
As the video clearly shows, San Diego -- one of GPT's shining examples or urban renewal -- has the city separated from the waterfront by a rail corridor (just like Newcastle). Safe, wide, pedestrian friendly level crossings are dotted along the waterfront.
THE RAIL LINE IS NO BARRIER TO SAN DIEGO'S SUCCESS!
We need similar crossings in Newcastle to overcome our north-south connection problems.
