If we continue to cater for only fossil-fueled transport we soon won’t be the Sunshine Coast but a static, smog coast, reminiscent of California or Florida, as broad roads fill a once beautiful region and those roads too fill with cars.

We need to reduce our dependency on cars and get people walking, cycling and on public transport; not just in isolated corridors but broadly across the region before we become a car park…..

Hi Chris,
I am happy to add this but I think you need to put this to your local RDA in the Hunter rather that ours which is for the Sunshine Coast.

Comment on Cr Debbie Blumel to highlight Coast’s vision at Canberra forum by Andrew Hillhouse

While the Government is to be applauded for this program, its focus is on the construction phase of projects it will fund.

The eligibility criteria requires that all planning, rezoning, environmental and/or native title approvals are in place. The program does not recognise that many community groups cannot outlay the significant costs to get projects to the stage where they are eligible for funding, or that they have the prescience to prepare for a government funding program that may not yet exist.

it would be useful if future government initiatives understood that careful planning and design of such community projects is significant and is often required to be funded, employs significant sectors of the population and avoids inappropriately delivered buildings and infrastructure.
