  1. Has any driver working on or in relation to the WestConnex project worked a day shift followed by a night shift or worked a night shift followed by a day shift?
  2. Do all contractors or subcontractors working on or in relation to the WestConnex project comply with the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator safety and compliance standards?
Answer -

Safety is the highest priority in the delivery of the WestConnex project. All transport contractors working on the project are expected to comply with relevant laws and regulations and Sydney Motorway Corporation has a zero-tolerance approach to non-compliance.

I am advised that Sydney Motorway Corporation is not aware of circumstances where double shifting of individual drivers or operators has occurred .
