The cost of the LNP thought bubble just doesn't stack up. That's why they're bleating like stuck pigs at the moment. It just doesn't stack up. Eight kilometres of tunnels and above-ground trains through my electorate, not through Bonner, would cost almost as much as the entire project already. Tunnels all the way from Acacia Ridge to the port of Brisbane would cost more than 150 per cent of the cost of the entire project from Melbourne to Acacia Ridge. A far cheaper option would be to take it from Toowoomba to Gladstone and to the deepwater harbour in Gladstone.
