Description

The Melbourne Metro Tunnel, a fifteen billion dollar project, has opened, marking a significant milestone for the citys public transport. Despite a thirty-seven point six percent budget increase, the project is considered a success, aligning with global trends for large-scale infrastructure. However, the opening has sparked debates about cycling infrastructure, with limited secure bike parking at new stations, and the absence of an airport rail link, leaving Melbourne behind other major cities globally.
