How much did the extension of South East Busway extension to Rochedale cost?

The South East Busway extension to Rochedale in Brisbane, Queensland, extended the busway from Eight Mile Plains under the Gateway Motorway to School Road, Rochedale, as part of the Gateway Upgrade South project, with construction starting in late 2012 and completion in March 2014. Wikipedia, citing a February 2012 newsletter of the Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads that could not be read as text, says the extension had an estimated cost of AUD 36 million funded in full by the Queensland Government. A later extension to Springwood with a Rochedale station opened on 12 May 2025.
