Active transport

Despite the decrease in commuters as a result of the pandemic bicycle and scooter users are struggling to find spaces to safely store their devices at train stations across the Central Coast.

I congratulate the Bicycle Network and all the students, families and schools that took part in National Ride2School Day.

Cities across the world are rushing to regulate e‑scooters and incorporate them into their transport mix. But what are we doing here? Nothing, because apparently the transport Minister is not in the mood to do anything about them.

Notes the dangerous intersection of West Street and Railway Parade, Petersham, and the safety risks to students travelling to and from Petersham Public School each day.

The Treasurer has left NSW spinning its wheels on active transport, again failing to make a clear commitment towards the Principal Bike Network in the State Budget.

I acknowledge the Committee for Sydney's recently released Life in Sydney snapshot, which amongst other things, reports that the majority of Sydney siders support building new cycleways. 

NSW Labor is calling on SafeWork NSW to explain why it was unaware of the workplace deaths of the two food delivery drivers earlier this week.

This bill is about transforming a disused rail line into a key dynamic and living piece of active transport infrastructure. It will create jobs and opportunity, both during construction and into the future. It will enhance protections for the heritage elements along the line and create a fascinating story for future generations.

NSW Labor has introduced a Bill to force food delivery companies to provide their workers with critical personal protective equipment.

Flashing lights at school zones across NSW will fail unless the NSW Government urgently commits $13 million a year in maintenance funding, damning documents obtained by the NSW Labor Opposition reveal.
