Iemma’s metro-tastic rail vision

Finally, Sydney has been promised a public transport infrastructure to rival the finest cities in Europe. Let’s compare.

And now, thanks to my inside source in the Laboured Party, I have managed to obtain a special advance copy of the plan for Sydney’s very own Metro system.

Sydney Metro

This comprehensive “network” comes at a price tag of just $12.5b. And that includes the $16m Iemma paid a consultant to draw the above network diagram.

Best of all, Iemma has flagged expansion of the network in the future:

Mr Iemma says future metro lines could run from the city to Parramatta, out to Moore Park and Maroubra and across the harbour to the northern beaches, but there is no timetable yet for those.

A little less vision, a little more action

March 18th already, and the year really has flown by. The mighty Combat Wombats suffered yet another defeat (or two) last night, although morale is high due to an after-match pub visit by the team faithful.

We recently passed the much trumpeted 100 days of Rudd Rule, and much was made of his achievements. With 70% support as preferred PM, Rudd was lording it over the opposition for quite some time there.

Now however, Dr Nelson seems to have cottoned on to the secret. Noticing that Rudd was having visions more frequently than John on the island of Patmos, Nelson will today outline his own five-point vision for Australia.

With all these visions flying around, I’ll be very surprised if the we don’t start seeing some major drug use allegations pointed at both leaders in the very near future.

Seriously though, I think the time for talking is just about over. Education and the environment are in a diabolical state, and the economy will soon follow. With all of Rudd’s talkfests, it is likely to be at least 2010 before we get any real idea of how we are going to reduce greenhouse emissions, and probably at least 2020 before we start getting enough skilled labour into the workforce.

Hopefully ol’ Kev can get over the novelty of being in the top job and get on with it.
