Authorities have blamed the North East Link Project for turning a Melbourne waterway neon blue on Wednesday, with locals told to \u201ckeep away\u201d while investigations take place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The North East Link<\/a> is a project 3 times over budget and one the community NEVER endorsed or requested. it is the most expensive road project ever undertaken in Melbourne and may finish with a $40B price <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The damage to the environment has been extreme and the EES must have been the usual sham.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When completed the eastern freeway will be in permanent gridlock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
