Transit officers being phased out before police can take over

posted Friday 10 August 2012
APT has been told that there will not be sufficient police for transit patrols once transit officers are phased out some time in 2013.

We also understand that the plain clothes transit unit has been closed already, as has the rail vandalism task force.

Separately, we have noticed an upsurge in graffiti on trains and near railway lines, although this may be due to cleaning resources being cut back.

We urge the travelling public to take any complaints to their local member of State parliament. See http://www.streetlist.elections.nsw.gov.au/ if you're uncertain who this is.
