North West Rail Link v. Epping to Parramatta Rail Link (1 Viewer)

[Politic]

Which is needed more?

Also ideas on configuration of these links into the Northern Line or separate lines?

If we're going to continue expanding outwards, it's imperative that we have some form of transport hub in North Western Sydney.

North Western (Well, they have already made plans on this anyway)

I'd like the northwestern rail link simply because there would be a train station like 15 mins walk away and I wont have to drive or catch a bus to blacktown to get on a train

We need an eastern suburbs line that goes to UNSW

 

[Shadowdude]

Is there a map that visualises this thing?

Here is the Christie plan, all the way back in 2002. It's meant to be completed by 2050...if pigs could fly...

North Western.

I admit that the Carlingford Line is completely isolated, but they don't have an awful space to expand out there (notably Carlingford) and also demand may not be be as high in proportion to the amount paid for the potential project.

NWRL feels more needed given the lack of attention given the area in the past.

I'm just kind of curious how they are going to build the second harbour crossing when they decide to go ahead with a project like this.

I think North western as sydney is expanding in these areas and the western suburbs need a better way to get to the CBD with cheaper more fuel efficient transport and no traffic jams, it would also raise the value of my house substantially . But knowing sydney, if it does happen its not going to be efficient or planned correctly.
