METRONET — ARMADALE RAIL LINE — ELEVATED
1586. Hon TJORN SIBMA to the minister representing the
Minister for Transport:
I refer to works on the elevated
section of the Metronet Armadale line.
(1) Is there any
foundation to claims made on social media that cracks in the ''L''
beams that support the elevated rail have been detected?
(2) If the claims
set out in (1) are true, how many such structural failures have been detected?
(3) What
remediation or replacement works have been undertaken in response?
(4) What impact
will this have on the reopening of full services on the Armadale line, which is
promised for May 2025?
