Let’s Bridge our Communities & Help Campaign to #buildabridge

Help us support our neighbours Friends of Erskineville and REDWatch to fight and campaign for the approval of an active transport bridge rail corridor from Carriageworks to South Eveleigh. Let us connect the great divide of residential, business & Sydney University communities of Darlington, Chippendale to the North & Erskineville, Redfern, Waterloo & Alexandria to the south of the rail tracks. It is a vital link of infrastructure that was proposed back in 2006 in the former Redfern Waterloo Authority plans with the Australian Technology Park & was due for completion in 2008.

To support this campaign #buildabridge and keep it alive and kicking, join the 1400 other signatures and sign the petition & send a new letter to the NSW Transport Minister Jo Haylen.

Friends of Erskineville understand that Lord Mayor Clover Moore is meeting with Minister Jo Haylen this week and they have requested that she raise the issue.

Let’s campaign to bring better connectivity back to our communities especially now more than ever with the proposed rezoning of the rail corridor of North Eveleigh prescient & the potential need to have continued connection to the proposed innovation hub between Central and Eveleigh known as Tech Central, Australia’s biggest technology hub.
