In terms of patronage forecasts referred to by the minister and the Premier on 13 August 2001, in particular to the 28 000 passengers who will use the service each day, 10 000 more than would have used the previously proposed route, I ask - (1) Will the minister table the modelling and supporting information on which this forecast is made? (2) Will the minister advise how many of the 10 000 additional passengers claimed by her to use the direct route were forecast under the previous master plan to use the express busway down the centre of the Kwinana Freeway?

I thank the member for some notice of this question. The minister advises as follows - (1) There is an explanation of the modelling process and land use in the Perth urban rail development supplementary master plan. The modelling process was the same as for the original south west metropolitan railway master plan, but with the latest land-use projections and an improved model. (2) The only patronage forecast for the Kwinana Freeway bus lane in the original south western metropolitan railway master plan is shown at figure 15 on page 28. This diagram shows that a typical peak-period patronage forecast for 2006 is 2 500 for the section of the Kwinana Freeway bus lane from Murdoch to Canning Bridge.
