NEWCASTLE LIGHT RAIL SUBMISSION By Peter Newey
NEWCASTLE LIGHT RAIL SUBMISSION by Peter Newey NOTE: This writer doesn’t have a car so is totally dependent on public transport. If the lightrail is to be installed along Hunter St instead of the now vacant heavyrail corridor, this will be a recipe for disaster and “drive a stake through the heart of Newcastle”. Unless it is extended into the suburbs right now instead of some time in the future, it will be just a white elephant like the former monorail in Sydney’s CBD. The Newcastle City Council is against the lightrail being in Hunter St, the Hunter Business Chamber is against it, and several community groups (like Newcastle Inner City Residents Alliance and Hunter Concerned Citizens) are against it. Even the former lord mayor Jeff McCloy, who was among those who had agitated for the lightrail to be in Hunter St, has changed his mind since seeing the details on how it would be constructed and operated. The Newcastle Herald is now “having reservations” after being an enthusiastic supporter of the lightrail project. Thesse are all locals who are in a better position than a Sydneybased government to determine what’s best for Newcastle. If the government persists in having the lightrail in Hunter St, this would be its second great big blunder with the drastic changes it’s making to supposedly improve and modernize Newcastle’s public transport with “seamless connectivity” as part of a grandiose “revitalization” plan for the innercity area. The first big blunder was “truncating” Newcastle train services 18 months ago and making Hamilton the terminus till a new transport “interchange” is built at Wickham. -
