Who Owns Dawson Mall Notice Boards At Mount Druitt Bus Interchange Resolved!

We rely on street signs, billboards and community notice boards to get us to understand where we are, where we are going and help us get to what we want to do next. On roads, whilst driving, these signs are to keep drivers alert to what is ahead and be kept informed.

Yet, we come to signs or community notice boards that is currently saying nothing. What is the  purpose of having these notice boards with nothing to say? Unsure. The owners of these signs obviously do not check and/or review their own signs and leave looking blank and not looking excellent for the entire community.

Now the story goes deeper, as Pauline community member from Willmot and member of the Mount Druitt Commuters Group  wanted to place a community sign  on a certain notice boards that is on Dawson Mall, near the drop off zone of bus commuters at Mount Druitt bus interchange. Pauline has been running around by foot and phone to get someone/government department to take ownership of the notice: from Blacktown City Council, Mount Druitt Hub - lady Mount Druitt went with her to take photos of the notice, to State Member of Mount Druitt Edmond Atalla's office representative - (who I believe gave great customer service to Pauline), no one could admit who owned it.

I simply went to the sight where the notice boards are and discovered the simple solution to who is the owner who is the owner of these boards. It is information board from Transport for NSW: burnt defaced, graffiti-ed and most of it unreadable.

So we need to refer to Transport for NSW to  their job review Information Board at least every week to ensure that information is clearly visible to the open community to understand: Bus Region 1 map, information on bus stands and complaints/compliments line details and  also give an opportunity for Mount Druitt Commuters Improvement Group Inc. to place their information poster their as well. We will refer to Blacktown City Council transport officers/Councillors and Busways representatives to take this on board and they can review NSW Transport reviewing of these Information Boards.

What I have also noticed along Dawson Mall, Mount Druitt is that there is no defacing of Westfield Mount Druitt signs on the exit/entrance to Dawson Mall. Maybe all relevant stake holders discuss with Westfield Mount Druitt Management, how they ensure their outside advertising signs are kept visible to the open community of Mount Druitt.

Editor's Notes:
I personally would like to offer my apology to Council Officer, Rudi Svarc, Blacktown City Council Manager of City Assets, where I suggested to him, the notice board were possibly Council Owned. We can never get all things right!
