@sniffoutmedia @JacintaAllanMP sniffoutmedia The Metro Tunnel's original 2016 budget was ~$11B. Current taxpayer cost is $13.48B, a XX% overrun from factors like COVID-19. Total project cost exceeds $15B per some reports. It's over budget but not "many times"—about 1.4x original. Opening expected late 2025.
