For all the argy bargy about public transport that goes on in Brisbane, it's worth remembering that in the capital it's some way ahead some of the State's other growing cities. Cairnsblog gives details of some community action in the far north on public transport.
Cairns Action for Sustainable Transport (CAST) is a recently formed community group. Tuesday March 11th, 7 pm Serbian Hall Greenslopes St, Edge Hill. Discussions on transport issues in Cairns involving the attending public will be the meeting’s main emphasis. You can print out copies of the flyer for the meeting to help spread the word. Initial meetings of CAST have discussed the reasons why dramatic change in transport planning is needed and many possible steps to take along the way. It is hoped this meeting will highlight: • Fixed rail services along the Gordonvale-Cairns-Redlynch rail corridor (also motorrail to Kuranda and Skyrail transit access); • Bus services; • Role of fares; • Bicycle network and facilities; • Pedestrian and mobility aid access; • Sustainable Town planning.
