Sustainable Transport or concrete jungle?

On Nov 5 the Cairns Post revealed the 10 lane highway "solution" for Cairns.

This is what the CAST 100 strong public meeting in March this year were universally opposed to!!

The Cairns Post has labelled it "future shock". It does look like shock and awe on the natural environment. It also represents the coal and oil dinosaurs trying to continue in the old ways.

They also say that the "work will take decades" - the perfect non-solution to a climate crisis.

Have your say! Online at the Cairns Post:
