Solution To New Time Tables DE-Express Train Services....

So now you are wondering what is  the solution to the previous posts problem. It is something that I have been advocating for years and it has been falling on deaf ears.

It is something that former Labor Party Member of Penrith, Ron Mullock has also  been advocating for, prior to his death years ago.

It is something that is falling deaf on ears on NSW Transport Stake holders and hard for Blacktown City Council Transport Officers, to  act on when it is outside their Local Government Area.

It is such a simple solution to resolve and the job could be completed in less than a year, if the Stake holders pool their   monetary resources together, get the planning into projects and then, there would not be De-Express Train Services. It would allow more services to be injected into the City and also on the return journey home, as well. This will reduce the amount of trains station on the current Mount Druitt Express train to stop at and adding a proposed new express train service that could miss St Marys, Mount Druitt train stations heading straight to Rooty Hill, Doonside, Blacktown and Seven Hills, Parramatta and then City, as an additional express train service, catering for those commuters.

So the suggestion will present a cost to the NSW Government but as  all population grows, we cannot just expand and provide new rail infrastructure in certain growth areas and leave other growth areas not catered for. The cost , to my understanding would be as much as  the of providing the new North West and South Westh railway lines links.

 We have duplicated carriageways  all the way to St Marys train Station and from St Marys Train Station to Penrith and Emu Plains, there is a single line carriageway for each direction. So the simple solution is to duplicate the single carriageway right up to Emu Plains or if not direct to Penrith. There would little or none acquiring of  land use to provide the final product as there is ample land on each side of the single carriage way.

 I personally have requested this to beaded to the NSW Long Term Transport Master Plan 2030 and Blacktown City Council Integrated Transport Plan. So, it appears that it will nor happen unless more ears hear and understand how this can provide a positive affect in improvement of Sydney Train public transport improvements. If we sit down and read this post and do nothing and you are a stake holder, then then ignorance. Personally, I am not taking any credit for this solution, it would have to go to the Former Member of Penrith, Ron Mullock.

This is the view from East of St Marys Train Station (trains coming from Mount Druitt)

This is West of St Marys Train Station - - where you can see all railway carriage ways lines go into one (each way).
