A further constraint to the use <strong>of</strong> sustainable transportation options is the infrequency <strong>of</strong> bus services. Improvement to this situation requires<br />

discussion between the <strong>City</strong> and the Public Transport Authority, which controls bus services. A community run bus is another option proposed<br />

by local community members.<br />

The <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Stirling</strong>’s TravelSmart Project <strong>of</strong>fers a great opportunity to work with the State government and local communities to promote and<br />

increase walking, cycling and public transport use.<br />

<strong>Carine</strong>-<strong>Hamersley</strong> Community Vision<br />

In the year 2020 the <strong>Carine</strong>-<strong>Hamersley</strong> <strong>Local</strong> <strong>Area</strong> is a place for everyone. While the peaceful, safe residential character <strong>of</strong> the place remains,<br />

a wider range <strong>of</strong> housing types means families, young people and seniors can all find opportunities to live well and make friends. Meeting<br />

places and activities have allowed a strong sense <strong>of</strong> community to develop. Sustainable transport options enable people to travel easily around<br />

the area and access places for relaxing and socialising both during the day and in the evening. <strong>Carine</strong>-<strong>Hamersley</strong> has become distinguished by<br />

the quality <strong>of</strong> its natural environment, as native plantings enable the place to flourish within its natural capacity, and green, leafy streets lead<br />

the way to high quality open space that provides a heart for the <strong>Local</strong> <strong>Area</strong>.<br />
