Re: Ideas for a greater public transport system in regional SA

To state the bleeding obvious, PT in Regional SA is shite. Idealistically, Regional Rail to Major centres such as Mt Gambier and Whyalla would be best despite few minor logistical and monetary problems. So we have buses instead, that do not really connect, that are loosely linked on a Website that h...
