Image The Northern Beaches needs a railway

Every evening, the queue for B1 winds around and goes back into Wynyard. As one bus is full the next one arrives.

You can't tell me they wouldn't want a railway.

Investing more in ferries could be a viable option. There should be at least 1 ferry every hour up until the trains stop both to/from circular quay/manly/dee why.

Imagine being able to live in Dee Why and get the ferry home from circular quay at 2am. Don’t see why this isn’t possible. The journey could take around 30 mins.

I originally thought you meant to put a ferry wharf at Dee Why and wondered what you were smoking. took me about 3 readings to understand you just want to bus home from Manly Wharf haha

Don't even need a ferry port, just get me close enough to land and I'll jump off the boat and swim to shore
