No progress on Pennant Hills Road under Labor
The critical issue of the M2 to F3 ‘missing link’ was raised again this week in Federal Parliament.
Following questioning by local MP Philip Ruddock, the Federal Minister for Transport, Anthony Albanese confirmed that the NSW Labor Government is the obstacle to progressing this much-needed project.
‘In response to my questions, the Minister himself stated that ‘the New South Wales government needs to determine its position as to whether it will proceed with this project’.
“Further, the Minister acknowledged, in an understatement, what those of us who use Pennant Hills Road have long known, and that is that the ‘F3 to M2 is an important project’”.
Mr Ruddock said the NSW State Labor Government must act to give priority to the project.
‘Rather than allow funds to languish in its Nation Building program, the Federal Government ought to be pressing its NSW comrades to prioritise this project.’
