Contract for Woy Woy commuters

NSW Opposition Leader Mr Barry O'Farrell has signed a "contract" which he claims covers the Liberal commitment to deliver 30 new express services for Woy Woy rail commuters.

Mr O'Farrell said the three additional Central Coast morning and evening peak services would cut 15 minutes off each journey, saving Woy Woy commuters two and a half hours per week.

They would, for the first time, provide a direct link between the Central Coast and Macquarie Park / Macquarie University, he said.

"The Contract with NSW is clear and accountable," Mr O'Farrell said.

"We are not just going to deliver on our promises.

"We are signing a contract with the people of NSW which they should keep so they can make sure we deliver.

"Central Coast commuters have been crying out for more express services and only a NSW Liberals and Nationals Government will deliver them.

"The people of the Central Coast deserve better train services and the opportunity to spend more time with their families.

"If we don't deliver then we expect to be held to account at the next election.

"The contract is clear, whether it's our promises for rail services, schools or hospitals, they will be delivered."
