Melbourne Airport is bracing for its “biggest ever growth period” — and if a certain threshold is met, the long-awaited rail link may be built sooner than expected.
Federal Transport & Infrastructure Minister Catherine King joined Heidi Murphy on 3AW Drive after the mediator’s report on the Airport Rail Link was handed to the Albanese government yesterday.
The federal government will allocate $2 billion in funding to create a new rail hub at Sunshine, with new platforms and tracks which would play a key role in the proposed Melbourne Airport rail link.
