This is the best summary I could come up with:

Melbourne’s long-awaited Airport Rail Link appears to have been spared from the chopping block, with the federal government reaffirming its funding commitment to the project.

The federal government has released its response to a review of infrastructure funding and appears set to scrap 82 “high risk” projects.

However, the Airport Rail Link remains one of the federal government’s infrastructure priorities and it says it is committed to delivering funding for it.

The previous Coalition government pledged $5 billion in 2018 to help build the rail link from Melbourne Airport to the CBD, which has been debated and planned for decades.

The state and federal governments are also locked in a dispute with Melbourne Airport, which wants the rail link to include an underground station at the terminal.

Reviewers Clare Gardiner-Barnes, Mike Mrdak AO and Reece Waldock AM found many projects lacked merit and were at high risk of further delay.

I’ll believe it when I see it. I’m sure they’ll find a reason to cancel it again, only to make promises again at next election again. I bet we could have built it twice over with all the money already spent on decades of analysing, planning, debating, then shelve and repeat.
