(1-2) The Final Report entitled Perth to Bunbury Fast Train Feasibility Study was provided by GHD Consultants in January 2010. There were previous versions of this report, however, the January 2010 version contained all the data sought by the Public Transport Authority. I am happy to table that report [see tabled paper no ].
(3) Yes, the Public Transport Authority is working with the City of Bunbury, Main Roads Western Australia, the Department of Planning and the Port of Bunbury to define how more precisely the railway can be brought from Eaton to Bunbury.
(4) There have been no additional reports completed on this work to date.
