Yarra Campaign Against the Tunnel's photostream

YCAT is a community coalition of individuals & local groups concerned about the impact in the Yarra area of the proposed tunnel linking the Eastern Freeway to Melbourne’s west. This group is still in its early stages of development.

YCAT will also link up with the other community groups fighting the plan especially on the other side of town in Melbourne’s west. It will also link up with public transport and environment groups.

It is clear that there is a lot of community anger at the proposal in the Eddington Study.

The 3068 Group have produced this diagram and additional notes based on recommendations of the East-West Link Needs Assessment (EWLNA) Final Report.

In times of rising fuel prices, oil supply issues, health concerns about air pollution and global warming, it seems to be bordering on an obscenity that Victoria’s elected state government is prepared to listen to private enterprise rather than the real concerns of local communities.

You can also take action - please inform all your family, friends, neighbours, work colleagues, school & uni friends about what is planned in our suburbs.
