CHARLES STREET PLANNING STUDY
1314. Hon NEIL THOMSON to the Leader of the House
representing the Minister for Transport:
I quote the Main Roads video which
was used in the consultation process for Charles Street, which said —
This area will become a lively
activity hub, a destination no longer just a thoroughfare. A place for locals
to stay and play with the important public transport role of Charles Street now
and into the future. Less traffic at the surface will facilitate improved bus
movement through the intersections close to city bound bus lane offers a more
efficient and reliable public transport service for the corridor further.
(1) Now that the
project is suspended, how will the minister deliver on the promise to deliver a
lively activity hub with less traffic on the surface?
(2) When will the
next design be put out for public consultation?
