    But the idea was slammed by the opposition, with David Southwick saying any suggestion thousands of commuters could catch the punt “to work, to medical appointments and to childcare is a slap in the face and no solution at all”.

    well no one said we are all going to catch the punt, it is just those desperate enough and need a way to get over the west gate. i wonder y he is the opposition /s

    The opposition has a point. This is completely unacceptable.
