No WestCONnex

No Westconnex: Public Transport (NoWPT), talking about 33km of Sydney's #WestCONnex toll road scam. Stop the tolls - public and active transport first.

Having a city based on driving around in tunnels was always going to cost a mint. And privatising the whole thing was only going to make it worse. Get ready Sydney for some minor tinkering around the edges of all the previous mistakes.

Western Sydney commuters are getting bilked by huge tolls on #WestCONnex. Privatisation and the fact that cars are the most expensive and inefficient way to move large numbers of commuters is the reason.

Transport emissions are rising fast and outweighing the gains in other areas. #WestCONnex car-centric cities are the wrong way forward.

Tony Shepherd and Maryanne Graham helped wreck Sydney with the #WestCONnex motorway plans. A power couple who used their power for their corporate mates. No sympathy.

The last 15 years of Sydney's #WestCONnex has wasted tens of billions of dollars only to make congestion worse.

The shame goes on both the LNP and Labor, who knew full well the whole CON of #WestCONnex and were told loud and clear by the community that it must stop. At least 12 people were arrested for trying to stop it.

Labor's Transport Oriented Development proposal assumes that we actually built excellent rail transport already, and we just need to build homes near it. Unfortunately history shows us a lot of it got ripped up and neglected over an 80 year period.

Car dependency inducing WestConnex runs totally contrary to government aims to increase density. Density can't be increased when everyone gets around in a two-tonne lounge room with a 3-seater sofa, 2 armchairs, 300 L of storage space and a hifi system.

The sinkhole will take a while to fix, sure, but not nearly as long as it will take to fix the huge hole in people's wallets to pay the expensive tolls and generations of costly car dependency.

Sydney motorists will pay $195 billion in tolls for projects that favour private companies over drivers, report finds https://t.co/uQSNqYLDJa @Wendy_Bacon @jennyleong @AlboMP @paulinelockie @nowestconnex @WestConnexAG @IWCouncil

[No WestCONnex @nowestconnex]

Why? Because building a car dependent city is expensive.

The reason #WestCONnex was built in the first place was profits, not people. If price, efficiency, speed, the environment and fairness had been the top considerations, it would've been trains, not a road.

This inquiry needs to go deep and ask hard questions about how #WestCONnex got approved in the first place. It needs people like Nick Greiner, Barry O'Farrell and Mike Baird to appear.

[No WestCONnex @nowestconnex]

News services are still not prepared to admit the blooming obvious: this sinkhole is caused by the M6 tunnelling happening directly underneath.

The real lesson to be learned from the asbestos scandal:

The #WestConnex Rozelle interchange can't be 'fixed'. The best we can do is to build and incentivise public and active transport alternatives, and to hold those responsible for this tollmania scam responsible.

#WestCONnex doesn't make the city run any better, it just shuffles peoples position in the queue around and charges them for the privilege. What an utter failure.
