Tunnel count – 7am Thursday 10 June

Save Railway Place will be out with our clipboards at the crack of dawn tomorrow morning to count the number of trains using the Bunbury Street Tunnel in peak hour.

It has been suggested that country trains could use this tunnel under Footscray instead of digging a new one or carving up the suburb for the Regional Rail Link.

The government is apparently not considering this option but has not told us why. So we’re going out to do our own analysis to see if it could be viable.

Look out for us in the morning chill: corner of Bunbury and Moreland Streets, Footscray, 7-9.30am.
