Quotes attributable to Transport Minister Jo Haylen MP:
“It’s all happening in Parramatta.
“Tram testing has passed 50% mark and will add to the growing number of ways people can travel around the Parramatta CBD.
“While Parramatta Light Rail Stage 1 gets closer to completion, other projects are now underway. Our investment in the Alfred Street walking and cycling link will make it safer and easier for kids and families to ride their bikes.
“The bicycle spots in the new trams will make it easier for people to mix up the way they travel, so you can pedal from home to the nearest light rail stop, then roll straight onto the tram.
“It’s exciting seeing all of this work becoming a reality, I can’t wait to test ride the Alfred Street cycle link when all the work is complete.”
Quotes attributable to Member for Parramatta Donna Davis MP:
“As our city grows, it’s great to see government investment in public and active transport is keeping pace.
“In the coming months, Parramatta will be transformed by the new light rail, plus the investment announced today means it’ll be easier for more people to walk and cycle across our city too.
“Our new walking and cycling paths are already so popular, I can’t wait to see how many people put on their walking shoes or start pushing pedals when they all finally link together.”
Quotes attributable to Parramatta Lord Mayor Pierre Esber:
“We are a step closer to seeing the first passengers travelling on trams in the heart of our City and we’re very excited that Parramatta Light Rail will soon be operational.
“This is a huge win for our community – it means more people can connect to the heart of Greater Sydney with these new transport connections – so people can hop on a bike to get to work, school or for leisure.
“I thank Transport for NSW and their support through the Get NSW Active Program to help create more active transport routes across our City.”
