00:00There is going to be disruption, and I apologise for that in advance, but big changes that make a massively
00:08improved benefit for people, they do take time and they are disruptive. They're always worth it, and I can't promise
00:16nothing.
00:18The quadrupling of the line as you get closer to Sydney is as big a project as the electrification of
00:24this line because it's going to make it a lot easier for South Coast and Wollongong communities to get into
00:31the city quicker, and that's ultimately the objective here.
00:34As Sydney grows, as Wollongongong grows and the South Coast grows, and we're expecting patch fish to increase by 26
00:41% by 2040, you have to build capacity in the line, and that's when we're putting the dollars down today
00:47to make a difference for them.
