Supporting Business
The CBD and South East Light Rail will build a positive future for businesses with improved connections to commercial, education, hospital, sporting and entertainment precincts. Building major infrastructure in Australia’s busiest city will be challenging but we’re making every effort to minimise the impact on businesses. There will be disruptions along the way, but benefits will be considerable once light rail is in operation.
