There is 0 chance a project like this comes in on budget, infact most major construction projects come in ~15% overbudget as a rule. Doesn't sound like much, but in today's world a 20% overrun is well within reason, and this would result in another $60M of taxpayer money down the drain.

This at worst should be shared with Murray Edwards and his bottomless pit of cash, but instead we just shoehorned it through to get a deal done.
