^^ Tonyp , have you got a map that shows that? But what about the platform that is needed for the other side as it will be in the way of part of the bus interchange and maybe part of the bus interchange entry/exit? Here is the unused track marked in red. It goes under those fences. http://i.imgur.c...

It seems to be a council initiative, not TfNSW:

Well nothing will happen in the immediate future simply because they need the capacity for social distancing. I'm sure we'll hear more about when the changes will occur once they realise that no one will be able to social distance on public transport anyway, especially if you want the city to start ...

These changes will be achieved by reallocating services from late nights and early morning services where existing customer levels are very low. This also allows more time for important overnight maintenance works to maintain reliability of the network. On Friday and Saturday evenings there will be...

Never mind the fact that if you look closely the T light gave the tram the all clear and there was a very good chance the tram was just behind the car, just out of camera but whatever reinforces your biases I guess... If we're talking about the moment at Kensington at 3:00 in the video then what I ...

Because interchanging at Lidcombe is nuts? Don't forget SOP is now tranforming itself into a business + residential hub. Opal Tower saga aside, the Carter St precinct means Olympic Park Station in the way it operates, and how the West lines are at saturation, will simply be its own Carlingford Line...

Why on earth would you spend a fortune making a grand Olympic Park events station when there's already a grand Olympic Park events station?? The existing station in events mode can already move something like 48,000pp/h? The metro will then almost treble that capacity with its 40,000pp/h per directi...

Why on earth have they splayed the terminating Metro tracks to align with the existing tracks AT THIS POINT IN TIME? By keeping the Metro tracks close together, much more platform space would be available for pedestrian circulation, where is it surely needed, at the western end of the Metro platfor...

Each station's page does have a travel-time table. E.g Campsie: https://www.sydneymetro.info/station/campsie-station

Campsie's design has been released: https://www.sydneymetro.info/article/concept-design-campsie-station-released https://www.sydneymetro.info/sites/default/files/styles/images_videos_full/public/campsie-455x260.jpg https://www.sydneymetro.info/sites/default/files/styles/hero_carousel/public/Artist%2...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^I can assure you the lower level underground platforms at Cenral are structurally sound. (I made them so). Recent news reports suggested that the platforms could not be easily made compliant with today's more modern fire rating requirements. It's not that its structurally unsound, bu...

Would it make sense for Forest to transfer its CDi's to Hillsbus to have a consistent fleet? (Even more so if Forest were to take over Region 8 )

The Newcastle Transport region guide still showing ‘Light Rail coming in 2019’. :roll: They're quite lax with updating this list. Newcastle Transport's website has a current map: https://newcastletransport.info/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/19248_KDH_network_guide_MAP-1.pdf Have another look, they're ...

That's just a map made for quick reference, to be on posters. Full region guides are where they usually are: https://transportnsw.info/travel-info/w ... rator-maps

Yeah that's exactly what the bus network needs, an army of RPO's tasked with stopping buses for 5 minutes at a time because someone didn't pay a few bucks. Totally worth the collective hours in delays that would create every day.

A driver's view video more representative of day to day running. So much dwell... ZlQrw2_QhMw At about 21:00 approaching South Dowling, you'll see the speed go from 40>20>10>20>30>40 in less than two tram lengths. 40 on Devonshire, 20 ten metres out from SD, 10 over the northbound lanes only, 20 aft...

Whinging here isn't going to bring about change. No doubt the government / TfNSW spin doctors monitor many forms of media and are aware of what issues the public have, but this board with a membership of 5,400 probably isn't one of there primary places for gathering feedback. I think everybody now ...

And what is all this whinging going to achieve? They can use the feedback from the public and multiple media outlets to implement a better service. What can be achieved is an even more functional piece of infrastructure. We can be excited that it's finally open but still question the efficiency of ...

And quite frankly I don't blame them. Many gunzels, especially you lot here, are being a pack of ungrateful, critical wingers with little comprehension or perspective. I think it's necessary to whinge when stupid decisions are made. This is the speed situation along a 500 metre stretch of the line:...

I've noticed that many of the speed limits are now lower than they were before testing commenced. Alison Rd past Racecourse 60 > 50 Anzac Pde Lang Rd to Kenso Junct 70 > 60 Eddy Ave: 50 > 40 They were lowered a couple weeks ago: https://sydneylightrail.transport.nsw.gov.au/news/new-speed-limits-imp...

With the Kangy Angy mothership still some months away from being in a position to receive trains, will initially need to be based somewhere else, Flemington depot or the UGL Unipart facility at Auburn perhaps. The M sets were moved to Auburn to make way for the upgrade of Eveleigh to accept D's for...

The M's space at Eveleigh was recently upgraded and retooled for the NIF, so I wonder if there's much appetite for mothballing it.

More doesn't equate to all. Aside from a slight decrease in stock needed when the Metro opens to Bankstown, Sector 2 will still require a similar sized fleet to today. The language in this project indicates all Tangara maintenance will be done at Mortdale. https://yoursay.transport.nsw.gov.au/mtms-...

I like that they intend to use the weird lettering that the heritage platform signs use.
