Region. Would have liked more

“While we are pleased that Government has acknowledged the crisis facing Western Sydney transport in their allocation of $200 million to investigate the options for the M4 East and M5 East, we would have liked to see a serious commitment to funding the construction of these vital links as soon as possible,” said Clr Allison McLaren, president, of the Western Sydney Regional Organisation of Councils (WSROC). Clr McLaren said the government had recognised the contribution of small business, which was the driver of Western Sydney’s $ 85 billion a year economy but would have liked to have seen more done to encourage investment.
