Region. Light rail plans

An urban planner, Garry Glazebrook, of the University of Technology, Sydney is among advocates pushing for light rail lines including around Parramatta, according to The Sydney Morning Herald. His plan would transform the poorly patronised Carlingford line by replacing it with light rail and incorporating a Parramatta-Bankstown line along the Duck Creek corridor, helping to revive a declining area, as championed by the Assistant Minister for Transport, David Borger, when he was lord mayor of Parramatta The Government's 2031 Transport Blueprint, now under review, includes proposals for a Bankstown-Liverpool light rail.
