The government sent a clear signal that they expected WCC to reengage with businesses in the dismantlement of LGWM. We have, and now we cannot action their feedback as any changes that impact the project business case mean funding must be reviewed.

Officers have just confirmed that WCC is unable to alter the Golden Mile design without putting at risk millions of dollars of government funding and timing for water renewals. That means removing the cycle lane, retaining bus stops etc. are completely off the table.

It's a month of public holidays, with tomorrow 7 April being Good Friday, Monday 10 April being Easter Monday, and Anzac Day coming up on 25 April. That means there will be a few changes to our services to give our staff a well-deserved break. https://t.co/8wDlT9Anq4
