MTAG update #7 - 10th April 2005
We've seen a lot in the paper these past weeks about the government's lack of commitment to public transport and its own air quality targets, while it continues pushing road projects. That, combined with the Airport's uncontrolled expansion, will "drive" us closer to the Marrickville Airport Tunnel which will have such a negative impact on our lives and on Sydney.
NEXT MEETING THURSDAY (14th)
Come along and have your say. Meeting is 7-8:30pm at Herb Greedy Hall (Petersham Rd off Marrickville Road, near Marrickville Library/behind Banana Joes).
AIRPORT EXPANSION PROTEST, SUNDAY 17th, Tempe Reserve at 11am
The airport doesn't have to comply with Council or state planning laws, or contribute funds to infrastructure like everyone else. They can put as many multi-storey car parks and commercial towers on their federal land as they like. Be there on Sunday to protest.
