The Sydney Motorway Corporation (SMC) is currently in the process of conducting consultation sessions on its Concept Design for the WestCONnex M4-M5 Link. Wendy Bacon went along to the first sessions in Camperdown and Leichhardt, and has provided the following report.

MULTIPLE errors made by WestCONnex in the removal of asbestos from a home being demolished in Brown St, St Peters, have potentially exposed dozens of residents and workers to the deadly substance.

On 19 January 2017 - just hours before Mike Baird announced his resignation - Sharon Laura spoke to Colin Hesse on Radio Skid Row about WestCONnex protests, the use of police as private security, and Baird's draconian anti-protest laws. They also touched on the secrecy, waste of taxpayer dollars and failure to listen to communities that led to Baird's downfall. Have a listen.

Last week saw Mike Baird step aside as Premier of NSW, with many citing his failure to listen to communities devastated by WestCONnex as one of the key reasons for his demise. Back in May 2016, when Baird's popularity was starting to plummet, WestCONnex Action Group's Pauline Lockie spoke at the massive March Against Baird rally about why WestCONnex was just one more way for Baird to achieve his ultimate goal: to sell us out to his mates in big business.

WESTCONNEX Action Group (WAG) today welcomed the news that Mike Baird is to step down as NSW Premier. 

LOCAL and riot squad police were called in to drag residents off parts of Sydney Park this morning to allow WestCONnex contractors to fence off parts of the park for destruction.

WESTCONNEX contractors were forced to abandon construction works in Sydney Park twice this morning after failing to produce any authorisation for the work when asked by residents.

RESIDENTS will gather at the Save Sydney Park camp on Tuesday morning to protest the destruction of the park’s trees and surrounding areas for the WestCONnex tollway.

Members of WestCONnex Action Group (WAG) went to the WestCONnex community information session in St Peters on 7 December 2016. Here's what we found out.
