The thing is, once they started talking about underground, the whole project got so silly that it was obviously never going to happen. $30 billion for underground light rail wiggling all over the place saving very little time on the trip to the airport, it's clearly nonsense from people that are trying to get the project scrapped. So this money was genuinely and intentionally wasted by the public service and the consultants. Although the new government isn't helping since they wanted the project scrapped too.
