Transport Minister David Campbell refused to say today what action he has taken to fix the major problems with the State Labor Government’s MyZone ticketing system, Shadow Minister for Transport Gladys Berejiklian said today.

Bus commuters will be forced to continue to put up with the same overcrowded and unreliable bus services they have come accustomed to under Labor following the Auditor-General’s revelations today the State Government has no plan to improve bus services, Shadow Minister for Transport Gladys Berejiklian said today.

The NSW Liberals & Nationals plan for Infrastructure NSW would help address Labor’s Sydney congestion chaos by independently planning and prioritising infrastructure upgrades, NSW Opposition Leader Barry O’Farrell said today.

The Federal Government has released the State of Australian Cities 2010 Report that again highlights Sydney’s worsening traffic congestion and ageing infrastructure.

Drivers in the North West could pay at least $65,000 in tolls, while motorists in the South West face toll charges up to $18,000 before Labor finally delivers rail links promised in Labor’s transport election scam – and that's before they are hit by Kristina Keneally’s new $30 car rego tax, NSW Opposition Leader Barry O’Farrell and Shadow Minister for Roads Andrew Stoner revealed today.

“Under Labor’s latest transport election scam, the North West Rail Link doesn't start till 2017 and won't be finished until 2024, while the South West Rail Link isn't due for completion until 2016,” Mr O’Farrell said.
