Love to see both parties commit significant upgrades of our existing public transport systems:
NATIONAL:
Light Rail - here, there and everywhere!
Fund a Darwin busway/light rail line.
Fund a Hobart light rail line.
Fast track Canberra's light rail proposal ( meant to commence in 2016)
High Speed Rail down the East Coast = Enough Said.
MELBOURNE
Scrap the East/West Tunnel $8 billion pipe dream and instead commit to rolling out more trains and extending suburban lines. City Loop runs at around 50% of capacity so there's room for improvement.
Rowville Line running down Wellington Rd. Does it need to be rail or can it be an Adelaide style O Bahn?
VIC
Continue to support the rapid development of Victoria's rural cities ( and similarly in NSW's EvoCities).
Light Rail for Ballarat?
SA
Take a leaf out of Perth's book and build, build, build.
Light Rail extension from Tonsley to Flinders Medical Centre - fully funded and built.
Airport to The Parade, Norwood light rail cutting through the city connecting with a City Loop.
QLD
Improve the tracks so that the Tilt Train can run at its correct speed!
NSW
Parramatta/Western Sydney Light Rail scheme.
hmm that will do for now!
