The development of transport networks in NSW 1860-1894

This address covers the development of transport and transport networks in NSW in the 19th century. The influences on transport and how it occurred during thejqedging years of the colony set the scene for future development and growth in the 20th century, and may well influence what happens in the 21st century. In planning and developing expansion of transport networks and systems, it is often very useful to be aware of and appreciate how existing networks and systems developed. Often situations have changed little in some areas, and therefore some valuable lessons can be learnt from decisions, events and development in bygone years. This serves as a useful means of learning from past actions.
