I suspect you're meaning fully-funded, but like road projects any Federal funding is part-funding. They wouldn't fully fund anything. I'd have to do a lot of work to dig up a list, but public transport contributions goes back to the Whitlam government and include rolling stock purchases as well as construction projects. One that comes to mind is the Sydney light rail in the 1990s which was funded part by Commonwealth (Better Cities Program) and part private. There was little state financial input into that one.
I also dislike the idea of Canberra bureaucrats getting their mits into road projects! But they certainly don't seem to be able to keep their noses out. |
