The result of a traditional inner city Liberal seat being lost to Labor, most on the back of a significant increase (9.5%) in the Greens vote all but guarantees that Labor will be in Government for, well, ever basically. One Party State. Also Labor has moved right to fill some of the gap left by th...

- Build a third track between Ovingham or Dudley Park and Grand Junction Road to allow express trains to pass. If the Adelaide Hills rail bypass is built, that will free up one track between Dry Creek and the city. There's actually enough space to have two extra tracks, so there could be express tr...

We don't need any billboards, they're tacky.

Is it just me or does that curved section look odd? I'm assuming they haven't finished perhaps? The track requires the use of a tamping machine to consolidate the ballast under the sleepers to establish the correct vertical and horizontal alignments of the track. It is only more recently that the t...

If the lines are to be connected, then it might be appropriate to connect the Port Dock line to the Outer Harbour line, and use the alignment via Wingfield as a T junction. The Rosewater loop corridor is surplus to requirements, and has no use nowadays. That would be ideal if the viaduct could be r...

Police horses are a waste of resources to being with. It would be better to do away with the mounted unit and buy more police cars. They serve very different purposes. How often does breaking up riots with horses take place in Adelaide? The cost of keeping horses for those few events is enormous an...

Very sad news. But why that particular spot? The tracks are on a curve and trains are traveling at speed since most don't stop at North Adelaide station. Drivers can't see anything until it's too late. Ever since the previous fatality, trains have limited their speed around that curve (even if they...

Next step, I'd like to see this turned into a terminus for trains to Dry Creek as well via the now disused goods line. Would’ve be easier to convert in future if they hadn’t dumped a load of earth between Russell Street and the mainline junction There are two routes to Dry Creek, one being the Rose...

If a government ever did consider the storm drain tram approach (which would be quite expensive due to the narrowness of that corridor along most of the route requiring a bunch of residential acquisitions) I think it would actually be more beneficial to consider making it O-Bahn track. Agreed, I st...

If you're going to electrify the obahn and have electric buses running on it, wouldn't it make sense to either have overhead wires, or a 'powered' rail down the centre at 'ground' level like some tram systems have to power them? I'm sure with some government funding as an incentive, the firm that b...

Next step, I'd like to see this turned into a terminus for trains to Dry Creek as well via the now disused goods line. I've always been told that the new station would be an island platform with the metro trains on the non-museum side and the NRM trains on the other but that plan only shows one trac...

:? what? Screenshot_20231013-151717~3.png There's already a park in that location though, the 'vision' posted just shows an expansion of that park and making it more accessible. Basically what a few of us said on previous pages about what should happen on the river front there, and better connectin...

Adelaide has 89 railway stations. These could be used as hubs to send and receive parcels, like the parcel lockers at Australia Post. Parcels would automatically be loaded to/from trains so parcels will move across the network faster than the post. It could even be fast enough for food deliveries, ...
