CHRIS DITTMAR, HOST: The Prime Minister was in town yesterday with Peter Malinauskas making an announcement about the South Road, the tunnels that are going to be built, the extension making it into a freeway. $15.5 billion project. Prime Minister, my first question to you this morning, you said yesterday this will be finished early. It will be done before 2030. I don't know if you've built anything recently in Australia. If you build a home or you put an extension on or whatever, but gee, they don't come in on time too often. You reckon this will be done early?

SONYA FELDHOFF, HOST: Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese joins us now. Good morning, Prime Minister.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning. Thanks for rubbing in how beautiful it is there in Adelaide. I'm speaking from, I assure you that Canberra is not that sort of temperature overnight.

LOUISE MILLER-FROST, MEMBER FOR BOOTHBY: Hi everyone, my name is Louise Miller-Frost, I'm the member for Boothby, and it's my absolute honour to be here today to welcome the Prime Minister. Of course, we have also the Premier, Tom Koutsantonis - the Minister for Infrastructure, and my friends Jayne Stinson with baby Quinn and Nadia Clancy, who are also local members. And my federal colleague, somewhere, Steve Georganas. This is a really exciting project for South Australia.

The final stage of a long-awaited seamless North South Corridor has reached a major milestone, with a preferred alliance partner being selected for the nation-shaping project.

The project will be completed by deadline, but it’s likely South Australians will be able to enjoy the full benefits of the River Torrens to Darlington Project (T2D Project) even sooner than expected – with three Tunnel Boring Machines to be operating at the same time, instead of the expected two.

TARLA LAMBERT, HOST: Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, thank you so much for joining the Women’s Agenda podcast today. We’re really excited to have you.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: G’day, how you going?

BASIL ZEMPILAS, CITY OF PERTH LORD MAYOR: I’ll say good morning, Prime Minister, and leave you with Gary. Welcome to Perth.

JAY BARR, CEO OF SAGEWOOD EARLY LEARNIING: Good morning everyone, I'd like to welcome you all to Sagewood Early Learning, Dayton and the Prime Minister here this morning with Anne, Tania and Sunitha from Big Steps.

MICHELLE ANDERSON, HOST: Welcome, Albo. How are you?

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Wonderful to be here. I'm very well. It's great to be back in the West again.

ANDERSON: Nice. And you’re missing, you straightaway ,you walked in and you're like, ‘Oh, where's Xav?’ Because you wanted to talk Hawks, of course.

PRIME MINISTER: I went to the Hawks-Giants game. There I was a Sydneysider, cheering for the Hawks against the Giants. You know, getting sledged for being loyal for decades.

ROBBIE VON, HOST: Breakfast with Allan and Carly this morning, Robbie filling in. And we have a very, very special guest with us right now, the big dog, the Prime Minister. The main man here in Australia, Anthony Albanese. How are you? Thanks for coming on.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Great to be here. Good to be in the studio, rather than out there in the rain too.

VON: I reckon.
