The boss of Avalon Airport says a rail link into Melbourne could be taking passengers within two years after Tim Pallas warned Melbourne Airport risked losing state government investment to Avalon if it didn’t end its rail stoush.
But despite 60 years of failure to make it a reality, the Grattan Institute’s Ms Terrill said the dream of a train to Melbourne Airport is likely here to stay.
For years, the rumours have said that Tim Pallas wanted to leave politics, and a recent departure hints that he may just do that after what will be his 10th budget.
