With the Qld budget delivered this week the State budget fails to allocate any money towards Gold Coast light rail. The light rail — was allocated exactly $0 during yesterday’s State budget.

The cost of the light rail has skyrocketed, (no suprise there) and the Federal LNP government is refusing to put in an extra to cover the total cost of the extension that now sits estimated at $709 million dollars, unbelievable!!!!

Our council want the Federal LNP to pump in another $157 million. They can obviously tell a dud when they see one and are refusing to contribute anymore.
