Just imagine how much more freight could have been moved if Inland Rail had been built as duel track. Missed opportunity supreme.
But that would mean that the governments couldn't extort more tax dollars in the future when they decide to upgrade it to dual tracks.
It's in their best interests to spread the corruption across multiple decades to share the stolen wealth among their political and corporate buddies. It's double gouging of our tax dollars. I swear, half of these costs is pure theft.
Yeah, I'm a bit cynical.
considering they were already using mostly existing track to cut down costs its not surprising
maybe if all the subcontractors didnt up their prices 1000x for government jobs there wouldnt be massive cost overruns on literally every project and it might be affordable to double track the whole route
It shouldn't be hard in the future to do that.only thing that'll make it harder is the tunnels on the QLD/NSW border
Definitely an unnecessary expenditure. Passing loops are more than enough. It's important to remember that the construction cost and maintenance is eventually paid by the train companies, make the infrastructure unnecessarily expensive and the entry fees would disentivise the use of rail
The army will have to redraw the 'Brisbane Line.'
Originally it ran across the summits and crests of the Great Deviding Range.
Now with the most important freight corridor west of the GDR.
A forward military posture along the corridor will have to be drawn up.
In case of the 'Dooms Day Invasion' scenario.
Just don't tell Adelaide they have been left out.
Again.
Just for clarification, the Melbourne Airport Rail Link is on hold due to a dispute between the state government, who had planned to build an above ground railway station, and the airport authority, who want an under ground railway station. The actual track that would need to be laid is only about 12 klms.
Great Video. As a northern Australian residing in Cairns FNQ, it would be nice to see some infrastructure projects for northern Australia. The northern half of the continent is Australia's front door to Asia, and we should be encouraging our growing population to move there.
An engineering and business case has been costed for the 'Great Iron Boomerang.'
Backed by minor parties and independent senators in the federal Senate.
The proposal was submitted in Parliament with the backing the mentioned Senators.
The government has sent it to a committee for evaluation last year.
The Senate recommendations was to hurry up and go slowly.
www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Committees/Senate/Rural_and_Regional_Affairs_and_Transport/IronBoomerang/Report/Chapter_4_-_Conclusions_and_recommendations
At this rate the trans continental Iron Boomerang won't be started before 2'030.
Northern Australia will lamentably have to be patient.
First Viewer and Comment it seems haha. It is very good to see Australia investing so heavily in rail as we have been unfortunately falling behind many modern rail/metro systems, I am also very excited to see what other projects we got planned after these ones are completed and how they will improve our services.
Sydney’s second international airport will have driverless metro services before Melbourne’s only international airport gets a conventional train line. 🤔
Melbourne is VERY backward.
All these Billions and we can't get a decent train connection between Toowoomba and Brisbane.
You need to upgrade the more line and make it very fast
Love this content, great work! Personally can't wait to see the Springfield train line be expanded on, looking on maps and in person I don't understand how it's supposed to be done but seeing what other stuff has been accomplished around the world I don't have any doubts.
I like how they are all building train infrastructure, especially metro expansions. Then there’s Adelaide with: " let's just build a massive highway for 15b$, no trains, no trams, nothing" :D
Comes in stages. Same happened to Sydney and Melbourne before the population went up.
can we also have coverage on the potential future of the former Myer centre (Uptown). I think with the 2032 games coming to Brisbane, its the perfect opportunity for a major redevelopment and transformation of that outdated precinct.
One thing I don't get is they have a planned city West of Caboolture which will eventually have the population equvilent to Mackay and yet, despite their been plans for a new second Bruce Highway, there are no plans of building a rail branch or any other form of public transport links to the nearby Caboolture/North Coast line which is just 5km away from the new planned Caboolture West Town Centre.
They would have planned for buses
Great content as always Mel
Sydney metro costs are grossly understated. This total investment currently under construction for Sydney Metro is $56B. The more accurate costs are as follows: $20B for City and Southwest due to open in 2 stages - The 1st stage from Chatswood to Sydenham opening in 2024, the 2nd stage from Sydenham to Bankstown slated to open in 2025. The Metro West line from Sydney to Westmead is currently costed at $25B and due to open in 2032. The WSA airport line from St Marys to Bradfield is costed at $11B and due to open in 2026. This gives a total of $56B
Support Inland Rail. This should enables a better Toowoomba-Ipswich intersuburban link as well as better Beaudesert line
Really do hope Beerburrum to Nambiur gets fasttrack for upgrades.... Sunny coast line in general atm is shithouse esp northbound in the AM
I hope they can also build a branch line or some form of public transport link to the new caboolture west development. We have an opportunity here to actually have an area built up around public transport infrastructure. But unless the state government pull their finger out of their ass, we will just keep adding more and more roads. One more lane, bro. SEQ can't keep going down this track.
@@electro_sykes kilcoy/Wanuran to bribie island with caboolture as key interchange maybe as we all dont need more north to south lines. But if need to reach city, probs best from bribie down to newmarket under the northside bypass link to bald hills and under bruce hwy at north lakes to go overland after dbay crrating green bridges for active transport thus complete full mbc link
Itll create stations for stafford, chermside west, aspley, bridgman, griffin, north lakes, deception bay, beachmere, ningi, sandstone point & bellara(bribie)
@@ItzWindyyy I was thinking of a frequent Bus service from Bribie to Caboolture West via Caboolture could also work. The road to Bribie does need serious upgrades. Good thing it looks as if they might finally be moving forward with an upgrade to that bridge, but the rest of the road, a lot of work is needed to be done. I think along with Caboolture West some of that area between Sandstone point and Deception Bay will also be heavilly developed in the future.
Inland Rail is not Queensland Rail, It is a federal government project to upgrade regional freight lines to delivered faster and more reliably across Australia,
The fact the inland rail doesn't even have a possibility of carrying passenger trains at any point makes it totally ridiculous
Excellent overview!
Comprehensive detail.
Just one statistical quibble.
The relative populations of Sydney and Melbourne are now equivalent.
According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics. Melbourne grew faster than Sydney, beyond previous projections.
As if the end of 2'023 year.
Greater Metropolitan Melbourne has 13'000 more residents than Greater Metropolitan Sydney.
As your channel shows.
Accurate data counts.
Love the channel.
Technically you are correct, but Greater Sydney is still larger in population than Greater Melbourne. It just depends where the boundary lines are drawn 😅
Glad you’re enjoying the content!
The new airport will mean no noisy aircraft flying over Sydney, cross river rail in Brisbane means a city is properly connected throughout with one public transport system, a basic design requirement in any city and finally Brisbane will have caught up with modern standards for city scale public transport with cross river rail.✌️❤️🇬🇧
Great video - nice animations :)
I lived in Port Hedland and seen the harbour expansion and railways of bhp and Roy Hill and fortesque metals group they hall about 6kms long trains
Northern beaches Sydney has very poor public transport, cancelled road upgrades and now increased harbour crossing tolls with no plans to address these problems even though an increase population growth.
Actually, the Suburban Rail Link / SRL in Melbourne, which has just commenced, is by far the largest infrastructure project in Australia's history. Obviously overlooked!
It ain't going to be built. The ALP will lose in 2026 and the Coalition has vowed to can it.
Thanks Mel, I am very frustrated by the delays in the Melbourne airport rail line. It is weird how this project costs as much as metronet, but sounds like far less work?
Now just think how expensive a dozen submarines are that Australia is buying of the uk and usa. We are paying more than all these projects combined ..what a joke
They need a rail line from Liverpool/ Bankstown to Sutherland in Southern Sidney .. All these projects dont affect me or I will never use ..
Would get HSR Melbourne to Canberra and arrive at Sydney… othrt hsr Gold Coast to bryon to Sydney
How many gigawatts of electricity will be used to create all this infrastructure and how many gigawatts of electricity will be required to run, use or operate this infrastructure? When you have that number, tell me how many solar panels will be required to generate that amount of electricity.
What about the iron boomerang
The Westgate Tunnel project is useless without the East West Link going ahead. In fact, the EWL should've been built first as it'll remain the final major missing link in Melbourne's freeway network once the North East Link is completed. The Westgate Tunnel is not even all that necessary as it just provides a minor shortcut to the existing Westgate Freeway to Tullamarine Freeway connection. Stupid thinking.
I remember talking to the Inland rail project team 10 + years ago and questioning them how they were (as they then proposed) getting to the port of Brisbane. I then asked about the Millmerran flood plain. I was obvious it was a shit show (QLD leg anyway) so I chose not to get involved in the project.
Why the hell does everything these days cost TEN BILLION DOLLARS?! Greed is the answer!? nothing ever cost this much even ten years ago. It's just insanity.
alot of people sitting in cribrooms is the answer and all the over the top safety holds up jobs
Lose the music. And the blazer😂 Good info though
9:27 after living in Singapore for 6 years I can’t wait to see how Sydney commenters react to standing all the time on the train and fighting for the handful of seats on a carriage……you got sold a lie.
Brisbane is falling behind other capital cities :(. Calling the river crossing a new line is a stretch….
Brisbane has a ton of infrastructure projects in progress in preparation for hosting the Olympic Games. I don't think your falling behind.
@@Ozvideo1959 anything worth mentioning? The cross-river rail is basically a tunnel with most of the new stations built in the vicinity of existing stations in the CBD. Brisbane metro simply introduces buses that pretend to be trams that will use the existing infrastructure. How does that compare to 72km of new rail lines in Perth? Or 30km+ in Melbourne and Sydney?
@@pabichpawelI guess the sunshine coast rail link is pretty significant, which is "planned" to open before the Olympic games start
@@fjeoijweiojfweio8212 that doesn't exactly falls under "currently under construction". Also, AFAIK it won't help people living in Brisbane.
@@pabichpawel although it is not under contruction, like you said, it is 100% going to benefit people living in brisbane, thats just the nature of a new rail line.
I bet that rail line will only be 1 rail line
wtf is project sea dragon?
Damn WA and Melbourne can build there own trains but Sydney can’t
you can wave your hands like albo ! JUSTwont happen!
still no train to the beach in Sydney 🤡
Not a close in beach anyway. You can get a train to Cronulla which is just 300m from the beach.
It will never happen because people that reside there keep protesting against it 😒😒 but they will still complain about traffic congestion and delayed buses at the same time
Heard today the woolloongabba project has been scrapt,
Brisbane love going backwards dont they 🤦
A council with no plan. Time to replace them.
PLS note that most of the large expenditure is on states that don’t have any means of paying money back.
We’re is the equality of sharing money and infrastructure projects through all states.
We’re is Tasmania, West Australia, Northern Territory, South Australia?
Seems spending large sums on 3 states, Victoria is broke, NSW isn’t far behind with Snowy and rail so throwing money seems to great idea while remainder of country export there large sums of taxes.
Do you see any issues with this logic?
How about evenly share the money?
Wouldn’t need any of this if the owners of the country had not decided bring in millions of 3rd world colonists.
That's largely our own fault. Sometime back in the second half of last century, white people all over the Western Hemisphere decided that it was cool to not only reject the old traditions, but openly mock and ridicule them. With offspring reduction being just one of those aspects. Now the natural fertility rate is too low and we're dependent on brown, black and yellow people to make up the numbers. Too bad. Lesson learned hopefully, whether it's too late or not.
Lose the 3rd world attitude
