So 6 years to project start. Then just a few more years for completion. All in we are looking to a decade out for project completion +/- a few years.

And to think, this is outright slow compared to internal Chinese infrastructure projects. Meanwhile in the US we'd kill someone to get some basic infrastructure built in under a decade.
