I thank the honourable member for Berowra for the question, because he knows how important infrastructure is for our country to help ensure that we have a prosperous economy. We boost our productivity and create thousands of new jobs. For as long as I can remember, the honourable member for Berowra has been a champion, an aggressive agitator, for the project we now call NorthConnex. He has been pushing for this for decades, because he knows how important it is for the people of his electorate. NorthConnex is a real game-changing project that will reduce congestion. It will save motorists 15 minutes of travelling time, it bypasses 21 sets of traffic lights and will result in 5,000 less trucks on Pennant Hills Road.
