Minister accused of 'making a mockery' of Coast consultation

Premium Content Subscriber only Queensland s transport minister has been accused of making a mockery of community consultation after he criticised calls for heavy rail to be prioritised over light rail on the Sunshine Coast. Fairfax MP Ted O Brien said Transport and Main Roads Minister Mark Bailey inappropriately intervened with the region s mass transit consultation when he slammed the region s state LNP politicians for their comments on heavy rail. Mr Bailey on Thursday criticised the local politicians calls for a fast, heavy rail from Maroochydore to Brisbane to be a priority. He said the community discussion was focused on creating new public transport options for locals to move around the Coast, not for people from Brisbane to travel to the region.
