In May 2019, the Australian government announced their desire to spend $1 billion purchasing land to create a $200 billion high-speed rail link between Melbourne and Brisbane, via Sydney and the capital Canberra. The air route between Melbourne and Sydney is the third busiest in the world, so high speed rail is likely to be very popular.
The government has been trying to get this project off the ground for many years - for example in 2018 and 2016.
Conveniently for the government, the value of all the land around the route has now plummeted thanks to the devastation of this summer's wildfires - many of which were deliberately lit.
