Trains to Huapai spokeswoman Christine Rose said traffic issues in the north-west are becoming “much, much worse” with rapid development happening in the area.
The infrastructure isn't in place to support those developments, she said.

“There’s a real feeling of injustice out here and that it’s a deliberate and political manoeuvre and that we just do not matter to the Labour government,” Rose said.
“People come out to the community, see that it’s got a railway line and assume that we might get train services, and they get a rude awakening.”
