I just heard drivers are getting a bonus for simply doing what they are already paid to do. Currently I don't get paid extra for doing what I'm paid to do, and that just isn't fair.Philip Leitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10575105615763301952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259450140022648201.post-66280761016213033952017-11-01T08:27:19.036+10:002017-11-01T08:27:19.036+10:00BrizCommuter is supportive of light rail alternati...BrizCommuter is supportive of light rail alternatives to CAMCOS if they better serve the local population base and connect with the existing heavy rail corridor.

A Hyperloop to Doomben is more likely to be considered before they even consider CAMCOS beyond Caloundra to Maroochydore.<br /><br />The SC duplication between Beerburrum and Landsborough (or Nambour) isn't really a white elephant when the main focus of the duplication is freight with the benefits to the state overall, with passenger benefits being only a major side-dish. <br /><br />The SC Mayor in the local media has made it clear he's more in favour of the Light Rail to service the local needs of the SC (servicing the more populated area of the SC), with the LR connecting to the Heavy Rail at Caloundra or Beerwah.<br /><br />The CAMCOS corridor is west of the major SC populated area north of Caloundra, still away from the major populated area and isn't very suited for local travel needs, with only SCU Hospital and the Mountain Creek education precinct (Schools, TAFE) being the only 2 known traffic generators on that alignment.<br /><br />A personal tip is that CAMCOS will only make it to Caloundra, with the SC Light Rail servicing the rest of the SC from there, pretty much following the existing frequent bus corridors with a slight diversion (or a Branch Line) into the SCU Hospital. This would free up the buses on that corridor as feeders from the inland suburbs of the Coast into the Light Rail and to the Heavy Rail terminus at Caloundra or Beerwah.<br /><br />As for the NCL mainline between Landsborough and Nambour, put the money on extended loops at the existing Stations.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12097328290552729417noreply@blogger.com
