    The Perennial problem is the fucking NIMBYs.

    Even the Pedestrian/Bike/Horse rail trails are being blocked by residents who don’t want strangers near their property. Even in areas with a large Horse-enthusiast population. Even where under-utilised sporting fields are accessible from the old alignment.

    Other existing rail trails are being sabotaged by locals, much to the detriment of local businesses such as cafes, micro-breweries and distilleries.

      Honestly we need a law that says if you oppose public transport, your house gets seized and you get banned from receiving any income
