Newington Metro - call to action!

Thankyou everyone who came on Tuesday night 1st May.
Thankyou to everyone who has already gone to a Sydney Metro info session.

It's not too late to Have Your Say!
We would love strata committees to post a letter,
an email or anyone else, too.  See #5, #6, #7 below.

We need your help.

Newington will have a train tunnel under the suburb by around 2025 to 2028.
However we may not have a station at Newington-Silverwater.  We need to act now.



Everything depends on numbers!
The NSW government is measuring how popular this idea is.

We expect the Coalition to announce its intentions in August or September 2018.


Make yourself known:

#1- DONE!  THANKYOU!
Community Forum and Rally
Newington Community Centre, Mon 1st May 6:30pm

They will ask your suburb and add up the total — make us count!
