WESTCONNEX Action Group (WAG) has called for a halt to Federal funding of WestCONnex following yesterday’s announcement that the Australian National Audit Office (ANAO) will be auditing the Australian Government’s decision to commit $3.5 billion to the toll road. 

WESTCONNEX Action Group (WAG) welcomed Shadow Infrastructure Minister Anthony Albanese’s call for a Federal audit into WestCONnex today, but said this needed to be matched by a commitment to halt Federal funding of the $16.8 billion toll road to stop taxpayer dollars being wasted.
