Federal government to contribute nearly $4b extra to Victoria’s Suburban Rail Loop

How do we all feel about the SRL?

Personally, I don’t hate it, but feel like money could have been better spent on numerous cheaper projects (like tram/train extentions for interconnectivity, or massively increasing bus frequencies and rationalising bus routes).

But I’m glad for any money to be spent on better public transport, and not more roads.
