The cost-benefit analysis undertaken for the project calculated a benefit cost ratio of 1.28.

The Budget notes that project timing and funding arrangements are still subject to negotiations with the Federal Government, with the total project costs subject to business case development. The 2018-19 Queensland Transport Infrastructure Program (QTRIP), released in conjunction with the Budget, notes that the majority of funding for the project is beyond the forward estimates with $424 million for Eight Mile Plains to Daisy Hill beyond FY2021-22.
