Clearly what is needed is a grid of several hundred high speed raise bollards laid out across the intersection. Usually down, they will be under the control of an AI monitoring system which on detecting an out of control truck will raise the necessary bollards to bring the runaway vehicle to a stop....

As part of the ACCs new city plan they are advocating for a city loop as part of their strategy 6.

I'm pretty sure the ACC has been vocal in supporting any tram plans this whole time, so can't see it changing much unfortunately.

All getting into a tangent though, because the case isn't that it should stay purely because the tenancy is a profitable business, but because it's part of the active lived heritage of the area, and that sort of heritage is more than just a facade.

:) The people that run the pub don't own it. They lease the space from the current landlord. They could be running a profit for all we know, but the landlord can choose not to extend the lease if they want to develop it.

The concrete channel seems absolutely required though unfortunately, at peak periods the water flow through there is massive and the drains are part of the infrastructure for preventing potential flooding of the area, have often thought how wonderful it would be if it could be more similar to the T...

The South Road publicity material with all it's talk of green space and community improvements (90% of which will end up as dead gravel based on other sections) mentions a possible bike/cycle path there. I imagine it's a bit more outside the councils hands right now. This propose plan turns the curr...

The government keeps approving developments in the southern neighbourhoods, such as Christies Beach, Seaford, Aldinga. But all those developments are houses, and none of them add density, which is essential for a vibrant area. Seaford has the potential to become a satellite city but it needs to bec...

amazing some here claimed the record immigration had nothing to do with the housing crisis they blamed everything but from boomers to John Howard https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GNC7LVKbMAAu-z8?format=jpg&name=small Made the mistake of turning ignore off to see what was being talked about. Immigrat...

It's sad to lose a physical venue like this but the building itself isn't that impressive and the business in it had failed, so time to let someone else try something new with the site.

Yeah in the areas where it does exist the shared path along the foreshore is great. Make that better connected and widen it in some spots if necessary if better cycling links are needed.

the majority of people that use Adelaide Airport aren't wishing to travel into the CBD But once in the CBD it is so much easier to get anywhere else by public transport. That is why other airports in major cities have convenient airport links to their CBDs. Whenever I fly to Melbourne or Sydney, I ...
