I FOUND the comments of lord mayor Nuatali Nelmes this week referring to the start of Supercars construction intriguing ("Track road closures begin", Newcastle Herald 2/2), specifically where she says "there is a bit of a buzz around Newcastle - you can feel that in the air".
The only buzz I believe Newcastle East residents are getting is the noise from truck and machinery movements as they start moving in buildings and equipment. She also goes on to say "there are a small amount of people who are affected." Somehow, the council thinks it's only the Newcastle East residents that are affected.
