Default How to fix Syd, Melb and Bris congestion

Sydney, Melb and Bris are congested. Well why not move the state capitals and virtually all the government employees to new cities thus spreading growth out. Bendigo or Ballarat would be the new Vic capital for example. Maybe Toowoomba for Qld? Newcastle for NSW?

This would be a boon for the town selected and help ease the congestion of these cities. I know the ACT government has about 22,000 employees...surely the NSW govt is much much larger. So moving those 10s of thousands of NSW employees is worth examination. It would also have a multiplying effect on the town's growth, so even more jobs would be created to support the new government departments.
