The first entry is always the pin's source. Overall confidence is a weighted average of how firmly each reference supports the start and end times used above; a reference counts half as much for every 180 days older than the newest.
Sydney Metro’s[2][3] own project overview targets "an opening date of 2032", a year rather than a day, so it sits at the end of that year.
Construction research 2026-10-24: Sydney Metro[3] West has completed tunnelling, with station excavation and rail-system delivery continuing. The 2032 target is for the complete passenger railway, not just bored tunnels. The published project budget is A$25.3 billion; contract prices are not substituted for the whole line. Source quote: “Tunnelling construction teams will remain at several station sites until late 2026 to complete major station excavation works.”
Sydney Metro's[2] own project page states the line targets "an opening in 2032," matching the pin's stored year and its 'scheduled' framing.

Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong. The AI checks it against this pin's sources, searches for better ones, and adds any page that backs you up. The pin's own sources still count most. A picture that shows something else, or shows it badly, is looked at too, and moved down or replaced.
