DON'T LOCK OUT COMMUTER RAIL FROM FUTURE USE!

RE: The Cairns Bruce Highway Upgrade and  Cairns Transit Network projects

Hi,

Is the draft concept design, released by the Department of Transport and Main Roads on the 5th of November, really a solution to our transport and traffic problems?

Rail is ignored and placing the CTN busway to the west and not to the east of the highway, makes future integrated use of bus and rail for commuting difficult.

No mention is made in this report of the future use of the cane train corridors and the role they could play in our transport needs.

Please find eight files pertaining to a proposed alternative transport system for the Greater Cairns Area. Also included is a copy of a newsletter released by the Department of Transport and Main Roads that outlines their proposal.

If you wish, send any advice (or criticisms) by the bucket load to trevwick1bigpond.com
 
Cheers Trevor Hardwick
