Responsibility remains for Rawson Rd level crossing
Thank you for keeping us abreast of developments with Labor's fast train announcement ('No mention of Woy Woy in Labor fast rail announcement', 10 January 2022, page 4).
I note that Dr Gordon Reid ". . . would not be drawn on questions of whether the project would include the replacement of the Rawson Rd level crossing".
This current proposal refers to Gosford and Wyong as the "obvious possibilities" as stops, and the 2013 proposal proposed one stop on the Central Coast, at Ourimbah.
So I guess we can presume that the local trains will continue to run as per usual, to enable us to link in to the proposed fast trains at either Gosford and Wyong and/or Ourimbah?
In which case, the State Government still has a responsibility to meet its commitment to replace the deadly Rawson Rd level crossing.
