In Australia, New South Wales Roads Minister Duncan Gay said talks are continuing between federal and state governments to develop a US$3.03 billion (AUD 3bn) F3-M2 road link in north-west Sydney.

It is reported that 882 NSW and federal governments will each pump up to US$407.83 million (AUD 400mn) in to the project. The balance of the funds for the four-year works, set to start in 2013, will be provided by a private firm to construct a tunnel from the F3 freeway to the M2 motorway.
