    The re-routing of gas transmission pipelines for major infrastructure projects is relatively common. Re-routing of similar nature to that needed near the Grange Road has been done before, including recently in Victoria. Cost and time taken for the actual physical work done is surprisingly small.

    On the recent occasions in Victoria, the small section of pipeline affected by the proposed new infrastructure has been re-routed deeper.

    The approval process is the slow part, with waiting for ministerial approval being painfully long.

    Well clearly they do not want to touch the pipe at all !, just build around It.
    As It has been reported It's a 2 year job to move a pipe like this (the Government does not have 2 years of sitting on It's hands In It's schedule)
