2252 - NEWCASTLE INNER CITY BYPASS, STAGE 4

Hornery, Sonia to the Minister for Transport representing the Minister for Roads and Ports

Given that the Government terminated its contract with Reed Constructions on 28 May 2012 and that Reed Constructions was building the Newcastle Inner City Bypass, Stage 4 from Shortland to Sandgate with a scheduled completion date of June 2013, what is the new scheduled completion date for the road?

Answer -

I announced on 26 June 2012 that Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) will partner with the Hunter Expressway Alliance contractor, Thiess Pty Ltd, to complete the Shortland to Sandgate section of the Newcastle Inner City Bypass.

Thiess will commence activity on site immediately and assess the work required to complete the project. This will determine the expected completion date for the project and put an end to the disruption and impact on the community and residents.
