[U/C] Re: WEST (Football Park) | Developments & News

The Tavern was next to the stadium, why would they demolish it. They didn't demolish the Sports Medicine Clinic, that was on the other side of the oval.

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Trains

If you were going to build a train line to Reynella / Morphett Vale etc, wouldn't it be cheaper to use the old rail corridor from Hallett Cove? It seems really expensive and almost pointless to build a brand new line. The line to Hackham via Hallett Cove would be 35km to ARS, only 3km longer than a ...

Re: News & Discussion: Trams

If the Government were to extend the tram line north to North Adelaide and beyond, and it was done in two sections it would be better to do two similar length extensions of 4km.

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Buses

Try going from Glenelg to Brighton after about 645pm - it takes between 40 and 70 mins it's 5km and there's no direct bus service at night the 265 terminates in Somerton Park after 645pm. It's quicker to walk then take half the options Google gives you, it would take about an hour to walk.

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Trains

Outer Harbor going through the loop would be hard, because where dos it go after? Can you run diesel trains through the tunnel? Belair (and Tonsley) would be the logical choice if all lines get electrified. You could easily run 20 tph in each direction so all trains could run through. The numbers ar...

Crane is fully up now - it's big, the boom goes over the powerlines a little bit above the houses across the road. It looks it's about half the height the building will be, this building will be the same(ish) height as the Stamford a few doors down.

[VIS] Re: New Womens and Childrens Hospital

Why can't there be an option 5 on the oval on the corner of West Tce and Port Rd.
