Tumbarumba – Rosewood RT legislation goes before NSW Parliament – 2nd May 2017

A government bill to close the disused rail line between Tumbarumba – Rosewood has been introduced in to the NSW parliament – by Andrew Constance,  Minister for Transport and Infrastructure.  A high number of parliamentarians spoke to the bill and favourably to the development of Rail Trails in NSW. The Legislative Review Committee process has indicated some wording amendment would provide greater certainty as to closure of the line for it future purpose as a public rail trail.  Rail Trails for NSW hope this view will be attended to in the upper house deliberations.
