Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan said that while the government cannot “wish away” the years spent in deadlocked negotiations over the station design, she is pleased that the airport has now relented.
Terri O’Toole argued there wasn’t even a single part of the footage filmed on an aircraft, meaning those on board wouldn’t be familiar with the correct procedures in the event of a major incident.
The airport, which had insisted an underground station was the best solution, has bowed to pressure after the federal government’s mediator, Neil Scales, sided with the state government.
