Natalie SULEYMAN (St Albans – Minister for Veterans, Minister for Small Business and Employment, Minister for Youth) (09:55): Westies are excited for the Metro Tunnel and of course the Sunshine station super-hub and the airport rail link. Earlier this week I joined the Premier and my westie colleagues to announce $5 billion in the upcoming state budget to back these game-changing projects. It means more services, more investment and direct access to the CBD, creating more jobs in the west and of course more opportunities. I cannot wait, as a local, to see the turn-up-and-go services when the Metro Tunnel opens later this year, and I know my locals are looking forward to this. Five new stations will take locals straight to the Parkville medical precinct – to the doorstep of the best hospitals in the nation – and a world-class education at the University of Melbourne in the education precinct.
