im a greater sydney local and hearing that chatswood to the city is going to be just 13 minutes had my jaw dropped. DAMN

Been here since the 90’s, yes it wasn’t as “pretty”, but it was far more livable and didn’t have the sterility of urban planning. Now there are a lot more people and there is a lot more traffic and of course a bump in crime.

This is whay happens when everyone wants to live in 5 big cities, it's time more and more aussies start moving to regional areas like cairns, townsville, batjrust, central coast etc

We shouldn't be replacing the Bankstown line and even if we attempted too it should go to either Sefton or Regents Park and the Liverpool line connects via Lidcombe to the City.

The steam train tour at Bathurst was part of Transport Heritage Nsw Bathurst steam weekend they operate over thr June long weekend, also im kinda surprised you didnt say anything about steam locomotive 5112 which is on display next to Bathurst Station

First National Park. America claims first by saying National Park had to be a Royal National Park

As someone who used the Seoul, Tokyo and post 2008 Beijing metro, there is a big difference between a metro and a standard surface rail system. This provided a good analysis of the difference. Note: The pre-2008 Beijing metro was pathetic.

Hey, this is brilliant! Have only just come across this and would love to see hear more on a Northern Beaches plan to fix public transport. I’ve lived here on the beaches now for 5yrs and it is terrible, especially after having it so good in Stockholm for 10yrs. If the idea of having the Metro continue through the beaches, at least put a Tram line in, which I believe was once there just like in the city! Would be awesome to watch some new vids on this, now 1yr later!? Have a good one, Cheers!! 😎✌️

32:10 Very nice. 🇸🇪🇦🇺

What's happened to the work on the Mona Vale Rd work from Terry Hills to Ingleside, such a relatively short section. Everything seems to have STOPPED.

Sometimes U have to take the initiative in these horrible train stations.

I today was sent a survey , how I as consumer see the new airport and how I would plan to get there !? Let’s say : I think it’s still a shitshow

😂😂 that's gold love your work.

muswellbrook - meth capital of NSW - completely blanked

How are you working for Neville?

The station kind of looks like a bus stop

Thanks, please this is constructive criticism, but when confronted with location names you’re not sure of the pronunciation, just ask some locals. Ourimbah is spoken by all locals and 90% of others as O rimba. With the O pronounced as in orange. I’m Australian and travelled much of our country and not knowing ‘local’ pronunciation can lead you a long way out of your way or lead to blank looks like your from another planet. Example: try these 2 Coolangatta and Tallangatta. Most will know the former but I’ll bet a beer most except locals will fail on the latter. Take care and if you would like to know the locals pronunciation reply and I try to explain. It’s tricky many will get it wrong.

There's not enough Healthcare workers to fill those hospitals every 15 minute walk in each direction or enough teachers to fill each school. Wouldn't they have to live in the area also? It wouldn't work

THE M5 EAST USED TO BE FREE BUT IT WAS TOLLED WHEN M4-M8 LINK OPENED IN 2020 AND THE SUBRUBAN STREETS GOT WORST AS THE M5 EAST BECAME TOLLED!!!! IT IS ALL THE TRANSURBANS FAULT! THEY SHOULD NOT MAKE THE M5 EAST TOLLED! THEY SHOULD STILL KEEP THE M5 EAST FREE! THIS IS ALL THE TRANSURBANS FAULT!!!!!!!!😠😡😡😡🤬🤬

The current default speed limits followed on from the pre metric values: 35, 50, & 60mph which became 60, 80, & 100kmh, which necessitated the replacement of multi thousands of road signs! The Calga Ourimbah stretch, was notorious for some really bad prangs, occasioning much death, all at a time when the NSW monthly road death toll exceeded 100 per month, or 1200 per year, due mainly to poor roads & poor cars. Consequently the Calga Ourimbah stretch was equally notorious for the active surveillance by the men in blue!

?? You called a much used public road abandoned??

Thanks “Geoff Marshall” lol. Loving the content. Fun Fact: the lines area was the backdrop to one of Australia’s most popular TV series: A country practice. Although the show renamed it to Wandern Valley, filming took place around McGraths Hill and stretched to Windsor and Vineyard.

You can Move to Melbourne Because the House Prices in Melbourne is Going Backward

Should We Ban Cars and Instead have More Frequent Buses, Trains, Metros, Trams, And Ferry Services. Wollongong is Very Dense and South Coast Trains will Run Every 15 Minutes in Peak and Every 30 Minutes off Peak when Metro is Extended. We Should Upgrade our Public Transport Network And Have More Stations Like they did in London, Shanghai, and Singapore.

The House Rent is going up and my Family had to Force to Move House By September.

Can you talk about the Teacher Crisis Soon Sharath. Australia is Still Facing a Problem with the Teacher Crisis and Teachers in Australia Are Quitting their Jobs.

Now anticipating Carlingford to Epping. It’s not that hard Sydney Transport!

The hunter line is great, I use it atleast once a week. Just gotta watch for the eshays coming from muswellbrook😂

Having recently come back from Singapore, I was amazed at the frequency. It ended up being a bit of a running joke about missing a train and waiting a couple of minutes for the next train. In fact, in one instance, we just missed a train and the next train was 1 minute away! And frequency doesn’t drop off at night. I was amazed it was still 4-5 minute frequency late at night ! And it’s relatively cheap too! It was roughly $40 for just over a week there. Pretty sure I’ve spent $40 in a day on Sydney’s network!

That CrossingLights redesign map looks awesome! It makes Sydney look infinitely better. This is a vastly superior map and the dark background is absolute tits. This needs to be the official map. I now reject the new current map outright. I don't even wanna look at it again. The CrossingLights map needs to go into full circulation as the new standard map immediately.

The McCafferty bus involved in the Freddo crash was repaired and crashed again exactly 14 years to the date in Qld. I lived in Freddo at the time and hearing those flat 6 powered choppers howling thru the air l knew that a major accident had happened very near us. It was Keating's work on superannuation that really accelerated the work on all Australian Infrastructure including the Pacific Highway as the ballast of money in that scheme became available to get wirk done. The work is still not complete tho as Hexham royte has nitt been done, that dog's breakfast between Karuah / Raymond Terrace, the northbound 90kph squiggle south of Taree and the Coffs Bypass are still yet to be fixed. Well at least the last time l travelled there.

A ride in the Singapore MRT is irritating. The announcements are too loud, too frequent & the chimes are too long. Its an acoustic hell.

An excellent proposal. The north-south connections to parramatta, olympic park and western aerotropolis regions are so important. I would love to see separate map/s and video on where and how we could integrate light rail into our network, and connect the stations and lines in this proposal. Which centres across Sydney that do not have light rail would benefit to connect people to stations on these lines. Where would we be better connecting the stations via bus routes?

Dick Jones 💀💀💀

They should have built the PECRL! It could divert the Western Line and Northern Line from the Main Suburban Railway, and instead you could increase services on the Intercity Blue Mountains and Central Coast Lines, which would be a lot faster and could be more frequent, albeit many have to transfer.

Bus Rapid Transit is good but it should be built to allow a conversion to light rail one day to keep up with demand

6:34 as a hongkonger i can point out that you havent seen central and admiralty stations

The one you gotta thank for no line to Bondi beach is Michael Caton and Kate cebrano

I don’t even live in Sydney or have been there but I want all of these lines to be complete one day

Does anyone know why in Sydney, the escalators run on the opposite side to the way traffic flows in Australia? For example, you’re about to head up out of a station and the up is on the right and down is on the left? It’s very odd to me.

A few years ago, my bosses at New York City Transit combined two existing transfer stations into one underground super station complex. Consisting of “42nd street-Times Square” station, “42nd street- Port Authority Bus terminal” station, “42nd street-Bryant Park” station and “Fifth Avenue” station, has, to use your terminology, 22 platforms within one massive single paid area…. And yet I am pretty sure it has fewer exits than Town Hall… I have walked the complex from one end to the other, it takes more than 10 minutes.
