“I’m pleased to hear light rail has been shelved but what a waste of money. Shame the State Government and Council didn’t listen to the Sunshine Coast people who kept saying they didn’t want light rail and all its impacts between Caloundra, Mooloolaba, Alexandra Headland and Maroochydore, but they spent millions anyway.
“However, the fight goes on to get proper passenger rail connecting Maroochydore to Brisbane, which is a different project on a different route.
“The delays to passenger rail are adding cost and complication. It’s time to release the business case and start building a modern public transport system.”
