Metro Rail – Process check
As I indicated before Xmas, the Minister has requested that the Metro Rail team do some more work to investigate a possible location of the Domain Station nearer the city. The post is here.
If a serious investigation is to be done then I feel it is presumptuous to continue with the ‘early works’. I believe that Metro rail scheduled all the ‘early works’ assuming they would get full clearance to continue.
In this light I have lodged a personal objection to the Boer War Park changes. It is not on behalf of the Owners Corp and simply raises the ‘process issue’ – essentially saying…please put the ‘early works’ on hold until the station location is finalised.
I have also notified Metro Rail of my objection.
You don’t need to do anything yourself but you may also lodge objections up until Jan 4. I personally do not believe that the quantity of objections makes any difference.
Happy new year
