John S. · Canberra resident · This week

Your coverage of the light rail debate has been the most balanced reporting I've seen in Canberra for years.

What's missing from the national coverage is the lived experience of residents along the corridor. Please keep asking the hard questions about cost, timeline and benefit.

I was delighted to read your piece on community gardens. We've been running one for fifteen years and the number of volunteers has trebled since lockdown.

The future of Canberra isn't only in big projects — it's in the small patches of green that bring neighbours together.

Bus services in our part of the city have not kept up with population growth. The 7:42 service is regularly so full that drivers skip stops.

I'd like to see Transport Canberra publish on-time and capacity data the way other cities do. Sunlight is the best disinfectant.

It's good to finally have a daily news source written for Canberra rather than at it. Keep going.
