Buses vs. Rails * Australia - Time running out to fix transport, Federal government warned
Australia’s transport system is totally unprepared for the looming challenges of climate change, rising oil prices and urban congestion
Melbourne,Australia -Public Transport Users Association -February 4th, 2008: -- ... A national coalition of transport groups warned today. In making the warning, the groups urged the federal government to fund the long-overdue expansion of urban and regional rail networks... The warnings are contained in a pre-budget submission to the federal government from public transport user and advocacy groups from each mainland state and the ACT. The submission points to dramatically accelerating climate change, chronic traffic congestion in our major cities, and growing waistlines and oil imports resulting from car dependence.
