Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Buses
The trick to getting timetables sychronised is to forget about timetables. Trains should come every five minutes on the Gawler, Seaford and Outer Harbor lines. Then the bus timetable won't matter, the trains will always be frequent enough to connect. To do that would either require building and man...

Re: News & Discussion: General CBD Development
In total, it's quite an impressive list of hotel brands coming to Adelaide in the next coming years... So what are we up to now: UC: Sofitel -- Currie Street Crowne Plaza -- Frome Street Hotel Indigo -- Market Street Casino -- Railway Station Potentially happening: Adelaide Oval Westin -- GPO Park ...

Re: Commonwealth Games in Adelaide
Hopefully October rather than March! Although the idea of adding a Commonwealth Games into the Mad March pile is quite amusing.

Re: News & Discussion: Squares and Parklands
Finish the Victoria Square Master plan first! This council is like a sugared up child, from one project to the next without completing the prior one first. I agree it could be spruced up but $20m is also extensive and excessive (IMO) for that part of the city at this point in time. It's amazing how...

Re: SA Economy
Theyve done nothing to address it. Now they think by opening the flood gates and bringing in 50,000 more foreigners from the third world it will fix things. Instead of creating jobs, new industries to keep our people here, and to draw in people from interstate, our politicians think bringing in mos...

[APP] Re: 51 Pirie Street | 114m | 28 Levels | Hotel
Unless they are planning something exceptional on the street level it would be a shame to see this go.
Also for a hotel that big, I would hope they don't want to have car access from Pirie Street. I assume vehicle access/parking would be from the carpark to the rear?

We say this a lot but really this is a prime spot for a much taller building as the latest render in context shows. I sometimes wonder if we were more strict on having setbacks whether that would influence taller /more interesting designs. Planning Commission: "You have to build a taller build...

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide City Council
I guess the only other available option to make this work is turning it into a one way st. Given you cant even traverse waymouth st from west to east (without detouring around light sq). It will introduce a lot more traffic congestion in the morning if traffic heading to the Topham Mall carpark has...

[U/C] Re: North-South Motorway
The responsibility for planning the route and construction rests with the state government. Federal governments of BOTH persuasions have been begging to throw money at this for years, via infrastructure Australia, and then various pork barrel excercises. The fact that even the final route or method...
