Parramatta. Funds for rail link?

One of the projects, which the new Sydney Metropolitan Development Authority could undertake if the NSW Government obtains funds in the next round of federal government infrastructure handouts, is the Parramatta end of the controversial rail link to Chatswood. “We could bring forward projects such as the M5 East expansion or the Parramatta to Epping Rail Link,” said Premier Kristine Keneally, in The Australian Financial Review. Elsewhere, Parramatta City Council Lord Mayor, Paul Garrard, said the provision of the Parramatta to Epping rail-link would open the city to a huge area of potential employees and businesses north of Sydney.
