H Class Tourist Shuttle

The tourist shuttle the H Class trams are running at the moment seems pretty useless to me, only running to stop 12, and it doesnt seem like their has been much patronage on it. Is their any particular reason why they arent going all the way to town? I think to make this Historical Shuttle Tram Serv...

End of 2011? Shouldn't that be "End of 2010"? The building is only a paltry ten levels. Anyone know how long it took to build the 91 level Eureka Tower in Melbourne? The new Engineering Building in Adelaide Uni started in January 2008 and won't be completed until mid-2010, and that's only...

Re: #U/C: Port Adelaide Tram Line

Although running a Tram to North-Adelaide would be nice and convenient, I don't think it would provide a good return on investment and there would, I suspect, be extreme opposition among North Adelaide residents. I think a better investment option would a be a spur line from the Gawler line running...

[COM] Re: South Road Upgrade

Makes me wonder why they didn't name it Osmond Gilles Rd, or if that's too long for some people, perhaps just Osmond Rd or Gilles Rd. If thats too long for people, why do we have Sir Donald Bradman Drive? why can't it just be Bradman Drive, no road should have such a long name, unless we want to ha...

Re: #Proposed - Castle Plaza redevelopment

would this project include the aquisition of the other properties between castle plaza and the hills site?
and also, would the existing castle plaza be rebuilt, because IMO it needs more than just a face lift to make it look goood.
