Another idea is to build huge park and ride facilities at Glen Osmond, Darlington and Mawson Lakes, where the car users can switch to light rail that run express to the city... a wierd idea, but I wanted to get it out there.

What about a promise to build one after the toll is introduced? (ie Toll money will fund the dual-carriageway?

I think tolls on the Southern Expressway is a clever idea. While they CAN use Main South Road to get to the city (which would remain free I assume), they can fork some money out and get to the city faster. The tolls should be placed just north of the Reynella exit/entry, because then they can't take...

The Highway Inn looks really nice now as well
Yes, I agree. They have completely revamped it, and it looks better than the dump it looked like before.

I'm yet to go in, but even the outside looks nice and inviting.

Most of the apartment buildings on Anzac Highway (further up to the city) are old and outdated... they need to be replaced as well IMO.

Well, it's better than nothing... if they are doing something for the future, the Jet Buses are tempoary.

Jimmy, the estimation of a 2m population was state-wide, an increase of 500,000 people state-wide (Currently, SA has a 1.5m population)
