More houses mean more people. How will these people pay for their houses if they can't get to work?!

There is a confusing and badly signed mixture of parking zones behind the station. Not good enough!

parking badly needed. Grasslands site Evans Street should be used for a 'Park, Pay and Ride' shuttle to station as is used in many places in UK

More parking is needed for rail commuters, business owners & employees and shoppers in Sunbury. Sunbury is missing a great opportunity to capture shoppers from the Macedon Ranges region who bypass Sunbury to shop elsewhere because our parking and traffic is a mess. This impacts business growth and employment opportunities for our youth and families.

If Sunbury passengers are banned from vline then they shouldn't have our parking spaces.

More parking spaces are needed all over Sunbury, not just at the station.

I have to drive to Diggers Rest to get a parking spot if I catch the train after 7am. Diggers is filling up fast too with the new estates. We need more parking spaces in Sunbury for train travellers. Why are there some spots that remain empty for permit holders? How does one get a permit? I heard they for out fo towners to park. Is this true?

Desperate need for more parking in Sunbury. It's getting more difficult we do not go near the town centre from Thursday's to Saturday's it getting impossible to find parking.

I am totally disgusted with the inaction in and around the centre of Sunbury. The 'town' growth is going through the roof and yet we cannot find a carpark to do our weekly shop. Why not build the carpark over the rail line and get rid of the level crossing while you are at it. Think big and stop fuffing around.

This issue is long standing and given the growth in the area if we want to maintain our shopping centre as a viable entity then we must provide parking at an appropriate level which isn't the case at present.

We are currently building in Sunbury. I will be catching the train at 7.30. There are more and more developments going up, council revenue must be increasing. What logical reason could there be not to address this issue. Its only going to get worse.

Get on with it, stop dithering and just do it before people take it into their own hands.

I started driving in a spaces are gone by 7am and it takes me the same amount of time yo drive in, but also by driving I font have to put up with all the cancellations as well. In Europe the trains come in every 2-3 minutes. Paris being one of the oldest but reliable.. Here they are between every 10-30 minutes plus lots of cancellations. If I had good secure parking and trains that ran every two-give minutes that were reliable I would be back training it. Not safe during the winter months

The town centre of Sunbury is designed brilliantly for 1900. Lack of car parking at the railway station is outdated. Sunbury's CBD is so congested with traffic - all driving laps looking for parking. Sort it out!!!!

The car park is full by 7.30am! But the empty Sunbury Square parking is fenced off by security guards. Why can't commuters park here when the spots stay empty throughout the day?
