Govt Spent $25 Million To Hide Traffic Horror

In the proud tradition started with the Sydney City Tunnel fiasco, our esteemed state leaders are about to reveal just how much they have dudded us in their cosy arrangements for the Lane Cove Tunnel.

The NSW state government has been paying Connector Motorways a cool $5 million a month to defer bottle-necking the traffic to force motorists into the tollway. This allowed the state government to sneak past under the radar and get through the March state elections without being lynched.

But now it’s time for our pollies to show the public just how much they have been sold out by this arrangement to abrigate responsibility and pass the problems - and the profits - over to private enterprise.

Here we go, yet again.

By the end of this month, in fact on August 27th, the three lanes we now have in each direction will become two per lane… And next year in January, one of the two remaining lanes in each direction will magically turn into a 24 hour bus-only lane.

The expected traffic bottlenecks have been coldly calculated to force more long-suffering motorists off the free roads and into the new, much loathed, tollway.
