New trams, stadiums and $50 Opal card cap after Gladys Berejiklians wins the ...

Sydney's embattled inner-city tram line will proceed and commuters will get a $50 cap on their Opal card travel following New South Wales Premier Gladys Berejiklian's election victory.

Stadiums built in 1988 and 1999 will also be knocked down and replaced.

A Coalition victory won't ease hip-pocket nerves, however, with motorists on the M4 motorway set to continue paying tolls of $4.55 to travel to and from the western suburbs of Sydney.

Just two months out from Saturday's election, Opposition Leader Michael Daley had suggested a Labor government led by him would rip up the 12km South East Light Rail. 

'If it's a scourge on this part of Sydney and it's wrecking traffic on a regional basis we'll have to some very hard decisions,' he told Sky News in January.

The $2.1 billion tram line, connecting Circular Quay in the city with Randwick and Kensington, is behind schedule by a year and is not due to open until May 2020.

George Street, which used to be Sydney's main road in the city, has been a construction zone since October 2015.

Construction costs have also blown out by $500 million with Spanish consortium Acciona threatening legal action against the state government over 'misrepresentations' about removing underground gas and water pipes.

This could see the overall cost blow out yet again.

Coogee, in Sydney's south-east, appears to be the only seat which Labor picked up from the Liberal Party, with anger at the delayed tram project blamed for the 3.6 per cent anti-government swing.

Western Sydney voters were much more forgiving of the Liberal Party even though the Berejiklian Government in August 2017 reintroduced tolls on the M4 motorway between Parramatta and Homebush. 

They range from $1.77 to $4.56 for cars and motorbikes, and $5.30 to $13.67 for heavy vehicles.
