Melbourne Airport agrees to clear the hurdle to long-awaited rail link

Melbourne Airport management has finally backed-down from their insistence that the railway station and approaching rail line be a slow and expensive underground build, and have agreed to have it built above-ground.
The government's response should be "Well, duh, we're *giving* you a world-class transport link that will help improve your business and increase your customer happiness."
The delay has made no sense at all, and I get the impression some people running Melbourne Airport tried to politicise the issue in the lead-up to the last state election.
Victorians want the government and airport to stop squabbling get on with the job.
