Labor will stick with WestConnex project

A Labor government would respect any contracts signed in relation to Sydney's WestConnex road project.

Bill Shorten says a Labor government will stick by any contracts signed in relation to the WestConnex motorway in western Sydney.

Media reports suggest Labor has pledged to stop any more funding for the road network if a Shorten government is elected on July 2.

The Labor leader told reporters in Cairns on Monday his party supported WestConnex and would not repudiate any contracts.
