Parramatta. Garrard meets local MPs

Parramatta City Council Lord Mayor, Paul Garrard, has met with local MPs to discuss the state government’s Metropolitan Transport Plan and to reinforce the importance of the Parramatta to Epping rail-link. He said one of the positive outcomes was that all MPs recognised the need for improved transport solutions, particularly the provision of the Parramatta to Epping rail-link, which would open the city to a huge area of potential employees and businesses north of Sydney. Cr Garrard said council had ramped up its Destination Parramatta campaign, aimed at improving rail, bus, ferry and cycle services to one of the fastest growing regions in the country.
