Lindsay G. Partridge

Dear Transport for NSW,

I request under the GIPA Act figures for the total cost and number of person-hours spent on constructing a case rejecting my claim for $3,113 against WestConnex for damaging underground pipes on my property in September 2020 (ref. STG3A-002).

This includes a site visit by three WestConnex representatives on 14 October 2020, processing of my initial claim by Transport for NSW dated 30 November 2020, and the impact assessment by IPIAP and subsequent appeal process in March–October 2021.

Yours faithfully,

Lindsay G. Partridge.
