Westall Railway Station - Access To The Station Compromised

Access To The Station Compromised

The new development has diminished easy access to the station by bicycle by failing to meet the Department of Transport's guidelines in regard to cycle access. Before the development cyclists and pedestrians could cross the rail line using at grade crossings. They are to be removed. The only way to cross the rail line in the immediate area will be by the use of lifts. The station has good potential to be connected into the Public Bicycle Network but this has not been implemented, even though "It's part of the Plan".

    “The professional celebrity, male and female, is the crowning result of the star system of a society that makes a fetish of competition. In America, this system is carried to the point where a man who can knock a small white ball into a series of holes in the ground with more efficiency than anyone else thereby gains social access to the President of the United States.”
    —C. Wright Mills (1916–1962)

    “Lesbian existence comprises both the breaking of a taboo and the rejection of a compulsory way of life. It is also a direct or indirect attack on the male right of access to women.”
    —Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    “Power, in Case’s world, meant corporate power. The zaibatsus, the multinationals ..., had ... attained a kind of immortality. You couldn’t kill a zaibatsu by assassinating a dozen key executives; there were others waiting to step up the ladder; assume the vacated position, access the vast banks of corporate memory.”
    —William Gibson (b. 1948)

    “When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    “He had kind eyes and hands
    and was a friend of sorrow.
    Thus they were married.
    After all he had compromised her.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
