Could not agree more. 110kmh on a freeway is ridiculous.

A good next step would be to eliminate the driver having to provide change. If you haven't got yourself organised with pre-purchase, you get no change. Many frustrating hold ups occur when some stooge fumbles around for small change and then presents the driver with a $20 note which he/she then has ...

No big loss. I always hated this proposal. All future developments on King William Street should stick to the 40m height limit (or thereabouts) in line with the other historic buildings on the street. Thankfully that ridiculous impediment to KW Street building heights was removed in the recent revi...

An awesome project for this state. Would love to see this extended the entire length to junction with Southern Expressway. Awaits howls of outrage :banana: I hope you've got your fair share of the tax dollars required to do it. Have the walls of Parkside Mental Asylum been lined with gold ? My apol...

Short-term pain for long-term gain! They seem to have sort of started work for electrical wiring approaching the Morphett St bridge, eastbound into Adelaide Railway Station; lots of those large, half-buried metal cylinders adjacent to the northernmost track. I think you may be referring to the air ...

went into ACC bldg on Pirie St on 18th and met up with a guy involved with development. He said the new bldg heights were not yet formalised and that he preferred a city of no more than 6 floors - what century is he in!!!! Had the 3D map on screen and was disgusted with it. I was asking about the i...

I'M SURE the developers wouldn't have spent A SHITLOAD OF MONEY during design/construction in trying to accommodate the tree if all they wanted to do was MAXIMISE SPACE FOR TENANCIES at the expense of the tree's LIKELY DEATH. The fact that they've called the new area THE TREE MALL also suggests tha...

This saga has been a fiasco from go to whoa. Assuming that at the outset of the planned redevelopment there was a genuine concern for the welfare of the tree, the original plan whereby the tree canopy penetrated the roof would have been far more appropriate, and likely cheaper to construct. The real...

Sorry Dr, but my back is very delicate today

The last few posts have absolutely NO RELEVANCE to the Northern Connector

I'm thinking the Travelodge on South Tce.

Come on it is 2012 for Christ sakes

Re previous post, one thing i neglected to add, but which is fairly self evident from the parlous state of our budget, is that nothing is expected to happen anytime soon unless the Feds kick in and the split is 80/20 or something like that. As the federal budgetary position is pretty ordinary as wel...

From a source within Dept Transport & Infrastructure, the plan for South Rd between Regency Rd and Anzay Hwy is finished and is either with the Govt for consideration, or soon will be. The 'corridor' will be the existing South Rd and for the section between Torrens Rd and Port Rd, most if not al...

SKYCITY exists to extract as much coin from unsophisticated and/or addicted gamblers as possible. The results are well documented and the State/Fed Govt (read TAXPAYER) ends up picking up the tab in a lot of cases, viz depression, broken marriages, bankruptcy etc. Do we really want to be blackmailed...
