Ipswich to Springfield Public Transport Corridor Study

I could argue this for every single prospective rail line really. It’s the sort of thinking that leads to a half-built Maroochydore line and the rest being busway. I’m all for a bus using surface roads to make the link to begin with, but why build in a lower-capacity mode and force everyone to transfer when it could just be built once and last for a century without needing to go back in and upgrade it later at great expense and inconvenience?

Well, because a bus is likely to be sufficient for the forseeable future.
