Re: #U/C: Northern Expressway | 22km

Is the Port Wakefield Rd interchange finished? (i.e. Bridges and all) because on the ABC News, it looked to me that it was still under construction. (Bear in mind, I did just glance at it from a distance, so I may be mistaken) BTW, on this being completed ahead of schedule, I congratulate all who we...

Stadiums Around the World

Hello all, I have found some pages on the net that have given lists of what the author perceives to be the best or most beautiful/ weird stadiums in the world. I am hoping that this new topic can just be a place for people to hold discussions about how stadiums look and for people to put forward som...

[COM] Re: Adelaide Oval Redevelopment - General Discussion Thread

adam73837, I believe that is this the old proposal for Perth. New plan is to redevelop Subiaco Oval if Australia is successful. http://www.australiabid2022.com.au/australias-bid_stadiums_perth-stadium.aspx http://www.watoday.com.au/wa-news/world-cup-bid-axing-wont-affect-stadium-plans-20100611-y21a...

[COM] Re: Adelaide Oval Redevelopment - General Discussion Thread

Out of curiosity, when they say that the oval has a capacity of 50 000, this only covers the number of seats doesn't it? I hope so. As for the rest of the stadium I can see where ricecrackers is coming from: what a terrible design Let's face it, it's not the best design of all the new stadiums being...

Not according to the video here (pause it at 1:06) , it will still remain. I also think that this was mention on Page 2 of this forum.

[COM] Re: Adelaide Convention Centre and Riverbank Redevelopment

Once this is built along with the RAH and HMRI the only exposed bit of rail from North Terrace will be between the HMRI and the bridge. I would not be surprised at all to see that make that spot of land become very appealing for some sort of development over the trainlines. As I have not seen a map...

Re: The Great Roads Debate

If we agree that we should spend them money in portions would it not make sense to free up the congested portions of south road, not the free flowing end after Regency road???? I agree, which is why as soon as this project is over, rather than fix their attention to duplicating the expressway (whic...

Re: State Election 2010

I'm back! Did you miss me? I didn't think so. My absence had nothing to do with the election, but rather to do with Year 12, which I'm surprised to say, I am enjoying, considering my subjects; but moving on... Although I was hoping for a different result, I can honestly say that I am glad that it is...

Re: #Transport Projects

But what of the route? Surely they aren't considering crossing the city-bound side of Port Rd to get to the train line! Earlier this year, when I visited Aurecon for a day, one of the guys there said to me that he would prefer that the tramline connected with the trainline before Park Terrace and th...

Re: The Great Roads Debate

Hmm, So it's good for freight vehicles, excellent, then how do we get them from the corner of Portrush and cross roads to the new super way??? By road, of course! Where have people got this idea that freeways are the only kinds of road that can carry traffic? And why do you assume the end of the fr...

Very well said Howie! can I also just ask you rhino and pistol, stadium aside, do you really think that putting a hospital on the riverfront precinct is a better idea that putting an entertainment precinct with cafes, restaurants and hotels? Did I also mention the saving of $1bn? The saving $1 bn a...
