View answerThe Railway Procurement Agency (RPA) has made good progress on identifying feasible alignments for Metro West and I understand that the RPA will commence public consultation on the route options shortly. Thereafter, it is expected that a preferred alignment will be identified early in 2007, taking into account the outcome of this stage of public consultation.
In line with the timeframes set out in Transport 21, Metro West is scheduled for completion in 2014.
