Liberal State Government & Transport NSW blatantly ignoring West & South Western Sydney commuters

Transport NSW responds to a student's safety concerns about interchanging at Birrong by telling commuters to interchange at Birrong.

December 2014 Update

Restore Inner West Line would like to thank the community for their support in 2014. We will be improving and expanding our campaign in 2015 ahead of the State Government elections in March.

Dear Gladys, please explain why you neglect South Western Sydney

Gladys Berejiklian owes the communities of South Western Sydney a proper explanation of how terminating the Inner West Line at Homebush has improved services for Lidcombe to Liverpool via Regents Park commuters. The State Government also needs to tell why it cut the Inner West Line and over 80% trains for the area. So far our requests for a formal meeting or even a decent response (not one half related statement that is just copied from the Transport NSW website) have fallen on deaf ears.
