Don’t give up on the mall - letter from Bill Brown

Shepparton’s Bill Brown is sensitive to the causes of climate change and is conscious that there is no silver bullet solution.

The answer, he sees, is multi-faceted and among those things be believes need to be preserved as we attempt to mitigate climate change, are the public spaces in towns and cities, such as Shepparton’s Maude St Mall.

Present discussion appears to favour stepping away from the pedestrian aspect of the mall and again making it a thoroughfare for motor vehicles, albeit slow.

Bill is opposed to that idea and would rather see public transport enhanced in a way that ensured the future of what is now a pedestrian mall.
