I think if the internal fwy go's ahead they will use some of the transshipping yard.
The mayor of Wodonga over the past two days has been blasting his Albury counter
parts as they have changed their minds and after a number of years being pro
internal freeway have now just voted to sit on the fence and wait for an inquiry of
the RTA costings. The Wodonga Mayor on one hand doesn't mind a freeway through the
middle of Albury but he can't get the money quick enough to rid Wodonga of its
station and rail yards. I do hope he never succeeds on either.
