Apparently 2024 is some kind of reverse year. Adelaide City Council has committed to opposing all development in the parklands for 5 years, and the Adelaide Park Lands Association calling that unrealistic and wanting sporting facilities and clubrooms upgraded.

Can't wait for the SMA to jack up food and drink prices in a cost of living crisis yet again.

It's not hard to pack your own food, and have a beer before or after the game.

They're idiots. The quest to 'modernise' it has turned the Myer Centre facade into generic piece of crap. However, I remain grateful that Rundle Mall as a whole is so much better-looking and lively than it was years ago. Completely disagree. There’s nothing lovely about the current Rundle Mall. The...

Speaking of wasting energy, don't spend yours here. abc is not interested in arguing in good faith.

Painted concrete is almost always worse than leaving it raw. Might look cleaner for 6 months, but will very quickly look worse.

Elon Musk has some interesting thoughts I believe

That's definitely one way of putting it.

I appreciate the comments! I don't believe Barbara is still with Renewal SA, but I agree that she was really great for the community engagement. It's a shame that the reference group was disbanded and it was funny when talking with Renewal SA recently they were *shocked* when we said we feel that th...

Thanks Norman. It's encouraging that we've at least got some traction with it, having already met with RenewalSA (with another to come), and other residents being in contact with government.

The active crossing at North Adelaide Station is apparently finally operational today. Only took 5 1/2 years and one death.

Who can we pay to accidentally clip the ratty carpark next door with heavy machinery during construction?

you'd spend more time waiting at a bus or tram stop than sitting in traffic... not to mention walking to/from the stop obviously its convenient as its the option the masses prefer We spend more time waiting at a stop than in traffic and have to walk large distances because public transport is at th...

How would peak hour traffic work down Unley Rd, Goody Rd or The Parade with fewer lanes for traffic when the majority of the journeys start from other areas? The ideal outcome is a tram service and infrastructure would simultaneously encourage changes in travel behaviour and force driving to become...

This one is directly opposite the park and is the most important remaining site due to both size and location. Here you can see the prominence of the site https://www.sentinelcorp.com/blog/2023/03/28/sentinel-to-deliver-south-australias-first-institutional-build-to-rent-community/. Once this has a ...
