A clearer Nexus experience: regional pages, Ask Nexus and our new film

An update to the public website restores wide-screen layouts and the Ask Nexus entry, and introduces Western Sydney — Connected.

Octopus Nexus

Our latest public website update brings three improvements together: regional pages that use wide screens correctly, the restored Ask Nexus entry across the public portal, and our 56-second film, Western Sydney — Connected.

The update was integrated against the deployed release rather than an older development copy. All 437 automated tests passed. After deployment, 37 public pages, 14 language catalogues and the film resources matched the approved package. Existing business data, identity and access settings were preserved.

The film combines source-based regional geometry with illustrative animation and an original ambient score. Its simulated L4 journey is not live transport information, and its digital-twin scenes describe a development vision.

This is a website and technical-pilot update. It does not announce a WSSH partnership, approve real ecosystem activation, or establish a commercial outcome. Ask Nexus is a starting point for public information; always check the original sources and avoid sharing confidential information.
