On December 10th, unable to bear it, shop owners, heavily affected by construction, interrupted an interview with the new state transportation secretary, refusing to compensate Sydney`s central business district, George street, for the closure of the affected businesses.
On Sunday, Ms. Berejiklian and Secretary of Transportation Andrew Constance (Andrew Constance) announced that the road had finally been completed at (George Street) George Street, returning to its original cleanliness.
In front of reporters, Mr. Constance, the minister of transportation of the new state, made a perfect summary of the three-year construction of George Street: "although it is a long time to repair the road, but there is no great loss to the citizens," he said. There was no large-scale closure of the surrounding shops, and everything went on smoothly. "
Just as he was ready to make a long speech and show his demeanor in front of the public.
A Cheng Yaojin was killed in the middle of the road.
George Street store owner Duff rushed out and punched him in the face. Duff shouted:
"do you know how much we have lost?"
The whole audience was shocked, and the reporters turned their heads one after another and did not respond for a while.
In full view, the scene was extremely embarrassing.
Transportation Minister Constance reacted first, in order not to let his handsome appearance hurt, in the face of many journalists, he also made a joke humorously: "guess what, your business is going to grow."
After that, he smiled contentedly and was proud of his perfect rescue.
And the reporters, unwilling to miss such good news material, rushed to interview Duff. in droves.
Duff said in an interview: the construction of the light rail has hit Strand Arcade`s jewelry store in a frenzied blow to George Street (George Street).
They angrily say their turnover in one store has fallen by about 9% and in another by 30% to 40%.
"We will survive because we have a lease and we have to make it work."
The shop owners, too, said they did not want to hear the officials speak. They all pretended to do nothing.
Indeed, officials` attitudes are in line with what they say.
Asked if he could understand the frustration of business owners, Communications Minister Constance was apathetic. "I`m not interested in that. I`m just saying that if people want rent relief, it`s possible."
Actually, when the editor came to Sydney in his first year, CBD was still like this.
The quiet and beautiful metropolis is as beautiful as my imagination.
By now, it has become unbearable.
Sydney`s planned light rail route, along the road along this route, faces the same situation.
The residents living around the route are naturally miserable. The clean and clean roads have become dusty construction sites.
The mood is getting worse.
What is even more frightening is that the expected completion time has been delayed again and again, and it seems that there will never be a day when the clouds will see the day!
Originally 20 minutes by car, because the construction site, the road became narrow, ride time double, travel is not convenient. Not to mention the driver of the car, can be circumvented by circumventing.
The light rail was originally built for convenient transportation, but it became the chief culprit in Sydney`s daily life.
That`s a little ironic!
It is hoped that the goverment will come up with remedial measures as soon as possible, rather than turning a blind eye.
