In 2014 they said the Melbourne Rail Link would have cost $8.5 and $11 billion, including both the CBD tunnel and the branch to the airport.

You said it was uncosted, but how much would’ve it cost? And did they release a business case for the Melbourne Rail Link? It would be a bit iffy if the party that talks about transparency when it comes to projects didn’t announce details on their own projects. Was this because they (the Liberals) knew there would be cost blowouts with the Melbourne Rail Link, despite branding themselves the party of responsible spending that apparently don’t have cost blowouts (as opposed to what they say about Labor)?
