Do the $ add up?

EastLink is being hammered in every direction... environmentally and now financially. Our friends at Rethink EastLink (Orange route) have long been highlighting how this 80 km highway would carve a bitumen path of destruction through the Hills from Talbot Rd, into John Forrest National Park, sweeping nearby past Parkerville and Stoneville, cutting through the heart of Gidgy and into parts of Wooroloo, and the KEP Trail, to name a few. $20-million is already being spent on a 'feasibility study'.

Now there are serious financial questions around spending billions more on projects like this. We met Tania Lawrence - WA Labor for Hasluck prior to the election and raised our EastLink concerns. We're seeking another meeting with Tania soon with much more to discuss on this matter... is EastLink also staring down the financial barrel?

Tania Lawrence's reply

As the countdown closes in on Saturday's Federal election, Labor’s Hasluck candidate, Tania Lawrence, has outlined her Save Perth Hills' election commitment. We met Tania earlier this week and discussed identical issues that we raised with sitting Hasluck member, the Liberals’ Ken Wyatt, including pressures to urbanise the Hills despite increasing bushfire and climate change challenges, the dangerous and destructive North Stoneville plan, and the need to protect our unique (and diminishing) natural environment.

We received Tania’s official response this evening…
