[LINK] Have your say on Sydney's future (or at least the planning)

[Marghanita da Cruz]

Linkers might like to contribute their 2c worth on Sydney's 
  Metropolitan Strategy Review

I'm impressed with the consultation interface. Though the 
site seems to have just failed, probably overloaded.

> The NSW Government has released a discussion paper [17 March 2010], Sydney Towards 2036, which examines how to address Sydney’s future challenges. The discussion paper is the first step in a review of Sydney’s long-term land use plan, known as the Metropolitan Strategy.

Unfortunately, the transport bit sounds a bit like the 
Canberra model - which doesn't work - people shouldn't have 
to move homes every time they change jobs.

Integrating land use with transport -
> The Metropolitan Strategy focuses on the concentration of existing public transport networks and services in centres.
> 
> Strengthening these centres utilises existing infrastructure and services and helps meet the NSW State Plan targets including the need to increase the proportion of people who live within 30 minutes by public transport of a Regional City or Major Centre.
