Mount Druitt Commuters Improvement Group Inc. Meeting 21/3/2015

Yesterdays Mount Druitt Commuters Improvement Group Meeting held yesterday,  was attended by guest Olivia Lloyd, Liberal Candidate for Mount Druitt, for the oncoming NSW State Election, to be held on 28th March 2015.

On of the issues raised is that because of the local newspapers going electronically digital in the last few years, there is less delivery of the news papers to quite a few suburbs. It appears after speaking to a Sales Representative on that local newspaper this is what is happening.

The reason why this is important is for people to read vital important local news, community improvements as well as activities and Local Council information.

We ask that local Newspapers if unable to deliver newspapers to all suburbs, for what ever purpose, that they be made available at all local community shopping centers. This is placed at a central location that can be pick up by the community, when shopping and they community is advised.

Discussions were raised of the Group Free Shuttle Bus petitions and  the  amps that the group had sent to Minister Of Transport, last year, were actually  hand-delivered to Gladys by Bernard Bratusa, Liberal Candidate  of Londonderry and Olivia Lloyd, Liberal Candidate for Mount Druitt, two weeks ago.
 
Also raised was the Standard's Meet the Mount Druitt candidates held a few weeks ago, where three out 4 candidates stated they attended the Mont Druitt Commuters Improvement Group Inc meetings and were would work with group to resolve public transport issues. This was a good result for the group!

Other local bus and transport issues were raised and the meeting resolved many matters that need to be looked into the future.
