20 minute trains at peak hour, train cancellations & overcrowding is normal on the Upfield Line. The train is infrequent because there is only a single track north of Fawkner. That means trains can’t pass each other. The track needs to be duplicated. 

There are no accessible stops between Brunswick Road and Bakers Road, Coburg North – a 5.5km stretch. Once the Upfield train line is closed for the construction of the Sky Rail, expected to start sometime in 2026-27, there will be NO accessible public transport along the Upfield corridor, a high-density population area, for at least 18 months.

We asked our NSW supporters to be part of this campaign by filling in our Tell Us About Your Bus Stop Form about their local bus stops: photos and information relating to that stop, whether it had a seat and or shelter etc, whether it was accessible and any other information they thought was relevant.  

Better West is active in developing an active transport plan for our local suburbs. The Council have a plan which they call the Greenline. We are being stonewalled. On the day we’ll be asking local residents what they expect and when and building our own local active transport plan. 

Meet up for our members in Sydney to coordinate our efforts and find out how we can create better streets for all 

The No 3rd Tulla Runway Campaign will hold a Twitter Storm, Email Blitz and Photo Bomb to protest the proposed third runway at Melbourne Tullamarine Airport, which will impact the communities health, the environment, climate and animals.
