Transport Matters
WSCF has submitted to the NSW Long Term Transport Masterplan – the Government’s way of developing a 20 year plan to take them beyond delivering their immediate election promises.
The WSCF focus was on developing services for people who find using public transport too difficult and taxis too expensive. We proposed an idea, the ‘fixed-price taxi’. WSCF has also been concerned with MyMulti concessions for job seekers and getting public transport concessions for international students. We also discussed ways to improve the standard of bus stop infrastructure in Western Sydney.
