Image Reference: http://www.goldcoastrapidtransit.qld.gov.au/about/3d-animation.php
Premier Anna Bligh today revealed the final shortlist of contenders to build the Gold Coast's light rail system.
Ms Bligh said the project had attracted three serious players and their interest was a major vote of confidence in the Gold Coast Rapid Transit project.
"Some of the biggest companies from Australia and around the world have been vying to build this $949 million project - the first of its kind in any regional Australian city," she said.
"The calibre of companies bidding should signal to everyone on the Gold Coast that the project is entering the next exciting stage of development.
"The Gold Coast Rapid Transit project will generate thousands of jobs, provide transit oriented development in key activity areas, connect the city and support huge population growth on the Coast."
