Save Holland Park: July 2012
http://savehollandpark.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 24, 2012. So, we want to move 100,000 people from the East into the city. Every day. Spend $850M on rail (also taking them off the Eastern Freeway in the process so making it easier for people have have to drive for whatever reason). An extra $300M would link it to the Metro rail tunnel in Parkville. Spend $5B to $9B on an East-West car tunnel, which would bring more cars. Seems easy doesn't it? Links to this post. Friday, July 20, 2012. Infrastructure Australia suggests a way to get funding.
