Responded By: Hon Rachel Nolan MP
TO: The Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of Queensland

Queensland residents draws to the attention of the House that readers of the Southern Star and Kooralbyn Times support a proposal to run DMU’s on the rail line in peak morning and afternoon periods to provide another public transport option and reduce overcrowding on current bus services and reduce congestion on local roads.Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to have the Transport Minister Rachel Nolan implement this trial, assess passenger interest and increase services if required as soon as possible.
