The Minns Labor Government must come clean on the future of the M6 motorway after revelations consideration has been given to abandoning the project altogether.\u00a0
\u00a0
The discussion around a scoping study for abandoning the project follows two years of delays and secrecy since tunnelling was first halted.\u00a0
\u00a0
Shadow Roads Minister Mark Coure said the community deserves to know the truth.\u00a0
\u00a0
\u201cThe Minns Labor Government must stop the secrecy, stop the spin and tell people the truth,\u201d Mr Coure said.\u00a0
\u00a0
\u201cIs this project being abandoned or is there a solution that will get construction started again?\u201d\u00a0
\u00a0
The Minister\u2019s claim she doesn\u2019t want to hand over a blank cheque to the contractor is getting old for those drivers sitting in traffic in Sydney\u2019s South.\u00a0
\u00a0
“The Minister talks about not writing blank cheques while handing out blank timelines,\u201d Mr Coure said. \u00a0
\u00a0
“240 metres, that’s all that stands between Southern Sydney and a finished motorway. Labor needs to get it done.”\u00a0
\u00a0
Mr Coure said the delay to the M6 and metro projects raises serious questions about Labor\u2019s ability to deliver projects, let alone plan them. \u00a0
\u00a0
\u201cLabor is good at cutting ribbons on Liberal and National projects, but when it comes to delivery, they struggle to get it done.\u201d \u00a0
\u00a0
\u201cThe Minns Labor Government has no long-term vision when it comes to the infrastructure that will shape our cities and ensure growing communities are liveable.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
