IN the latest iteration of the NSW government's "big picture" planning processes, the Greater Cities Commission has begun to envisage the "megatropolis" from Wollongong through Sydney to Newcastle as a "six cities" project that can be optimised to provide the best standard of living for everyone within its limits.
Realistically or not, the commission sees "a connected region of six cities where we can move people and goods across the region in 90 minutes".
