Wollongong deserves better

The Federal government is still to release the feasibility study for the Maldon Dombarton rail link whilst the State Budget released 6 September could have done more for Wollongong rail and roads.

And now the State Government has given approval for more grain trucks this year.

Something for our newly elected Council to look at ?

The runaway truck on Wednesday 21 September 2011 on Mount Ousley follows three heavy truck accidents in the Illawarra Region, one fatal, one putting the Kiama Bomaderry line out of action and a bulk truck and trailer running off the Princes Highway at Albion Park Rail
