Community members have shared their ideas with Transport for NSW (TfNSW) representatives who were in the city tonight to consult with locals on the draft Wagga Transport Plan, which is on public exhibition until May 28.

Speaking to The Daily Advertiser this evening, vision-impaired resident David Paterson said his priority was road safety and that he regularly saw cars pulling into bus stops and speeding along busy pedestrian thoroughfares.

"People [are] parking in the bus bays, the buses are then forced to park on the road to actually be able to pick up passengers, creating an enormous amount of safety issues," he said.

Mr Paterson, a member of the Wagga Disability Access Committee, said he was hoping to "get a foot in the door" on TfNSW's plans for people with disabilities.

"I'm hoping that today I can actually come by and help give that a bit of a spark and say, 'Hey, we're actually here, can we give a bit of input?'," he said.

"The [financial costs involved] don't even come close to outweighing the benefits in some cases."

The Grange Lifestyle Village residents Pam Morton and Peg Connor attended the TfNSW meeting to advocate for a bus service connecting the Lake Albert retirement community to the city.

"We're all getting older and it would be good to be able to get into town or wherever they want to go at their own leisure," Mrs Morton said.

She said she would like to see improved public transport for Wagga's expanding outer suburbs.

Released on April 23, the draft Wagga Transport Plan outlines a staged approach to "reprioritising" the city's urban roads and streets, including developing priority networks for walking, cycling, bus, general vehicle access and movement of heavy vehicles.

It looks to prioritise walkways and buses within the central business district and the health precinct, and to reconfigure Edward Street and Hammond Avenue, but it is missing big-ticket items such as the duplication of Gobbagombalin Bridge and a truck bypass for the city.

Listed as an item for investigation in the short-term is a potential northern road linking the Olympic and Sturt highways to ease congestion, while a southern heavy vehicle bypass route may be investigated in the long-term.

Speaking at the TfNSW meeting this evening, resident Malcolm Edgar said he would prefer to see any future bypass built to the north of the city to connect with the Riverina Intermodal Freight and Logistics Hub.
