Greater Hobart’s mayors welcome Labor’s federal election victory
THE Greater Hobart Mayors have congratulated Anthony Albanese and the Australian Labor Party on their Federal Election win, pledging to partner with the incoming government to strengthen the Hobart City Deal. Hobart Lord Mayor Anna Reynolds, Clarence Mayor Doug Chipman, Glenorchy Mayor Bec Thomas and Kingborough Mayor Paula Wriedt released a statement saying the election outcome would deliver
funding for a number of key priorities outlined in the City Deal, while acknowledging the outgoing Coalition’s work to establish the City Deal. “We look forward to working with the Albanese Government to deliver the ALP’s election commitments for Greater Hobart, including $20 million towards the expansion of the River Derwent ferry services, which was the top election priority identified by the Greater Hobart Strategic Partnership,” the statement
said. “Securing this funding is testament to the advocacy of the Greater Hobart Strategic Partnership and further evidence of the City Deal delivering for our communities. “The expansion of the ferries will fully maximise the Derwent River as a commuter transport waterway, initially through four new jetties and terminals at Bellerive, Lindisfarne, Sandy Bay and Wilkinsons Point, while looking at the feasibility of expanding
into Kingborough.” The mayors also welcomed Labor’s $60 million commitment to upgrade and strengthen Hobart Airport’s runway and airfield facilities, supporting international passenger flights and greater freight capacity. “We look forward to partnering with the Albanese Government to deliver these priorities, and call on their support to ensure southern Tasmania receives its fair share of funding into the future.”
