Region. Transport infrastructure a must

Community leaders, planning experts and the public at large have called on Premier Barry O’Farrell, to get Sydney moving again and make connecting the city with the west his No 1 priority: more transport infrastructure to link inner Sydney with outer suburbs and a major road and rail corridor between Parramatta and the Sydney CBD. “It is inevitable that Parramatta will become the city’s second CBD, and infrastructure planning must be recast with that at the front of our minds,” said Gary Sturgess, the former director general of the NSW Cabinet Office, in the Greiner government, in The Daily Telegraph.
