Sunshine Coast Light Rail 2020
Update me
Imagine a fast, frequent, high quality light rail service on the Sunshine Coast!
Help transform the Sunshine Coast and have your say on light rail.
Lightrail could help protect lifestyle and values for current and future generations by offering a real alternative to the private car for some trips. It runs on electricity, not oil, emits no air pollution at the source, and the electricity it uses generates much less carbon per passenger kilometre than car travel.
A future with less cars is a future with more sustainable lifestyle choices.
Don't miss your chance to get involved in the light rail project and be part of the future of the Sunshine Coast.

Join the discussion and tell us your thoughts on the introduction of light rail!
Modern cities around the world embrace light rail as a better way of moving people. Light rail is fast, frequent, comfortable and quiet. A single service would potentially move more people than existing public transport, dilute traffic congestion and pollution by reducing the number of cars on our roadways, free up parking and further attract and open up the Sunshine Coast to visitors.
Add your thoughts and ideas on the introduction of light rail to the Sunshine Coast in the Light Rail 2020 online discussion forum and let your colleagues friends and neighbours know so they can also add their ideas.
