Re: News & Discussion: Trams
Wild idea, but what would people think of a compromise where we can have dual tram lanes on O'Connell Street, that yes, would reduce it to one lane in each direction for traffic - but if LeFevre Terrace was duplicated and Main North Road redirected into LeFevre Terrace and then the road realigned t...

Reminds me of Murray walker doing a Grand Prix commentary: "That car there is absolutely unique! Except for the one right behind it, which is identical!"

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Trains
How would you deal with the 47 street crossings of the Port Road median between the Entertainment Centre and Port Adelaide station?

Re: News & Discussion: Cycling
Sounds like a plan. Have all the traffic from Main North Road funneling into one lane doing 30km/hour. Be good for Adelaide City Council shops. Prospect Council, not so much.

Re: News & Discussion: Squares and Parklands
Yeah I was a bit tongue-in-cheek because
a) the city skyline is several years old, with many new tall buildings missing
b) the 'lake' (?) in the middle-distance, to the right of the RAH, with hills beyond reminds me more of upper Spencer Gulf than Adelaide.

[COM] Re: 52-66 King William Street | 65m | 15 Levels | Southern Cross Arcade
Today there was talk of hot-desking in the new building, with a number of desks allocated as a percentage of the number of staff. I'm annoyed, but you can't get everything you want. Does hot desking imply their will be a hybrid setup, partly in the office and partly working from home? This is often...

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Trains
4029 appeared at Dry Creek at start of March and 4030 in mid April. I saw 4030 in service today (for I believe the first time). Strangely 4029 has yet to enter service. The new units are being delivered about every 6-8 weeks. There are 4 more to be delivered. I reckon they could all be Inservice by...

[SWP] Re: Lot 14 (Old RAH Site)
Universities are federally funded. It's not something for a state government to "choose to spend money on" unless you want the government to be a property developer and build student blocks. That was all you took from Floplo's post? I'm afraid I have to agree with Floplo on this - there i...

[VIS] Re: Passenger Trains to Mount Barker
Penrice definitely used the line for bringing materials into the plant, think that until their closure a decade ago they might have also exported products on the line. They had a daily stone train ("The Stonie" to gunzels) from the quarry at Penrice to Osborne, where they used the limesto...

[VIS] Re: Passenger Trains to Mount Barker
I think it's rather unlikely that freight arriving from Melbourne, Sydney, Darwin or Perth would be heading for Port Adelaide or Outer Harbor to be transferred to a ship. They are all bigger ports than Adelaide. Similarly, it's unlikely that cargo arriving in Adelaide by ship would be railed to the...

[VIS] Re: Passenger Trains to Mount Barker
It will be interesting to see if any rural railways get a serious proposal to reopen them. Eyre Peninsula narrow gauge seems possible. Many of the others have been repurposed or lost I think. Rattler, RIesling and Amy Gillett trails for example. Now that Aurizon have taken over OneRail, hopefully t...
