Absolutely incompetent fools. Another colossal multi billion dollar stuff up by Jacinta Allan, Tim Pallas, Victorian Labour and the economic “train” wreck will be extraordinary. Indefensible in the extreme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is yet another substandard outcome from the government rail authority opening another chapter in a long history of outrageous failures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grossly over budget with slower trains due to the tunnel design with regard to the Hospital Precinct and now limited options for the use of rolling stock. The installation of gates is an over engineering situation that will restrict the use of rolling stock using the tunnel. It will also dictate future rolling stock design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With so many rail projects with less than acceptable outcomes is it time to find who is responsible for these $billion dollar disasters. We all still remember the shortened platform installation at Deer Park<\/a> and the unmitigated disaster of the Murray Basin Rail Project<\/a> that has driven freight off rail and onto road having the entirely opposite effect after over $1 billion has been invested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
