Following reports of asbestos in the Victoria Park mulch, the University of Sydney sent an email to all students and staff disclosing that there are some sites on the Camperdown campus with possible asbestos. The majority of the contaminated mulch supply was located in its packaging and has been isolated for removal. The University has identified and fenced off the areas where the mulch is being tested. The presence of undisturbed mulch does not pose significant risk.
We toured campus to spy the three (possible) asbestos-ridden spots: Science Road, John Woolley Building and Manning Road.
