BELAIR RAIL LINE

275 Dr McFETRIDGE (Morphett) (21 October 2008). Will the Belair line be converted to standard gauge as part of the state’s rail revitalisation program and are the sleepers that have been replaced in recent years, dual gauge?

The Hon. P.F. CONLON (Elder—Minister for Transport, Minister for Infrastructure, Minister for Energy): I provide the following information:

The Belair line will be converted to standard gauge as part of the rail revitalisation program. The concrete sleepers that have been installed on the Belair and other lines are 'gauge convertible'.
