Reported at www.theguardian.com: Anthony Albanese announced a $7 billion investment in Melbourne’s airport train line, which includes a $2 billion commitment for improvements at Sunshine station, in a bid to revive the long-stalled project.

The total estimated cost of the airport rail project is around $13 billion, and despite previous delays, Albanese emphasized the need for efficient connections to the airport.

Victoria’s Premier Jacinta Allan confirmed her government would maintain its $5 billion commitment but could not provide a timeline for when passengers could start using the new train line.
