The new TTP Parking station open next Monday 13th January.It will provide parking for 700 cars-for those using their MetroCard then a bus the fee will be $2.
For those casual parkers who do not have a Metrocard the fee will be $10.

Re: News & Discussion: O-Bahn

Rubbish Nathan-the important information that commuters need is very well laid out and clear.Get on a bus and go see for yourself.
Customer feedback has been excellent on them.

Re: News & Discussion: O-Bahn

Nathan-I suggest you take a trip out there and see for yourself the information.It is very clear and easy to read and follow,rather than making negative comments without seeing it. Congratulations to DPTI for this excellent innovation.Hope to see more of them at key locations,which I am sure will be...

Re: U/C: Electrification & Upgrade of the Adelaide Rail Netw

Test trains from Adelaide to Noarlunga start tomorrow.

Re: News & Discussion: O-Bahn

Get used to the idea that it will be an O-Bahn busway for a long long time to come. No Government present or future is going to spend millions changing it to Light Rail,and have stated that many times. Given the parlous state of our finances,it ain't going to happen now or in the future.Bus is far m...

Re: U/C: Electrification & Upgrade of the Adelaide Rail Netw

You guys seem to forget that thanks to the previous Federal labor Government and its huge debt,the new Federal Government cannot afford to keep on spending like we would all like them to. Tony Abbot made it very clear before the election that his was an Infrastructure Government and would not be spe...

Re: PRO: 30-year Transport Plan PRO | $36b

Melbourne has many roads that are just as narrow or in some cases even narrower than ours,so that should not be an impediment,mind you the chances of these plans getting off the ground are very slim.

Re: PRO: 30-year Transport Plan PRO | $36b

The one thing missing here is funding. The South Road upgrade, in particular, needs to be financed by tolls. I suspect the government will tackle this post-election. Personally, I believe a wider tolling net, singapore-style, with the proceeds funded into any & all elements of this plan (includ...

Re: News & Discussion: Public Transport

There are already more than enough bus services covering North Terrace.This new service will provide a 15 minute service along the 99C(revised route) as opposed to the current service,as well as being operational for longer each day---that certainly is a major improvement!
