Page Title: What We Want - Fair-go for Footscray Rail Residents

  • This webpage makes use of the TITLE meta tag - this is good for search engine optimization.

Page Description: More than 30 homes and 84 businesses in Footscray are earmarked for compulsory acquisition to make way for the Regional Rail Link. Residents first learned the news through the media, waiting in some cases for more than 36 hours for official notification. Affected residents and traders are unimpressed with the complete lack of prior consultation and the generally disorganised and disrespectful way in which the Department of Transport and the Government have managed the process.

Page Text: Do you have information that might assist our campaign? Read more... Member Area Sitemap What We Want The FFRR group does not oppose the RRL project. Our people are generally strong supporters of further rail development. We believe that it is entirely possible to have better train services and thriving, healthy communities near railway corridors, and we hope to see the RRL project implemented as an example of best practice in this respect. We ask simply that those impacted negatively by the project be treated fairly and respectfully, and that the future health and liveability of Footscray not be sacrificed on account of poor project planning and implementation. Information We want clarity on the project and how it may affect us. The Government and the Regional Rail Authority failed to inform residents and business owners at the beginning of the project and have continues to stumble in this regard ever since. Affected community members have had to chase information at every stage, see: Questions to the Minister #1 and Questions to the Minister #2 ), plus the long list of news items. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) report Respect Nobody should be treated this way. The government and Department of Transport have trampled over affected residents and traders as if we don't matter. The almost total lack of advance notice shows great disrespect, as did the appalling way in which the acquisitions were announced, as well as the ongoing failure to inform and consult. Compassion Real people are affected here. This is not just a discussion about property values and compensation dollars. Long-term residents (some living here 40-80 years) and newer residents alike stand to lose family homes as a result of this project and many of us are also deeply worried that we will also be forced from our community. Those of us not facing acquisition are uncertain about the future health issues highlighted in a previously secret Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) report on RRL noise, vibration and air quality impacts.
