COMMUNITY CONSULTATION

(1) Has TFNSW or NSW TrainLink completed the community consultation as announced on 24 October 2022, to be completed by early 2023?

Answer -

I am advised

It is inferred by LC 538 to LC 546 that this question relates to the Wallerawang Train Station.

The Wallerawang Train Station was closed in 1989 by the former Liberal-National government under the Premier Greiner.

It took the former Liberal-National government 11 years and 7 months, to announce that it would reopen the Wallerawang Train Station. Despite this commitment, reopening the station did not occur.

Transport for NSW is currently assessing the scope and cost of works needed for train services to use Wallerawang station.
