That actually looks kinda cool.

Are there no mining companies seeking out a HQ in Adelaide?

Just raze a city block already!

Palace Nova has lodged a DA with the ACC for installation of 2 more screens at its current site.

Yeah I agree with you there, I have always found it stupid why 2 modes of PT serve the one destination, when one clearly has a faster travel time.
I think what Adelaide's PT system needs to be transformed into, is a system where heavy rail is used for the outer major centres (Elizabeth, Noarlunga ...

Welcome to the forums toby.
The canal idea was proposed in the mid/late 1800's. It wouldn't be viable now economically.

However, I do think a good tourist drawcard would be the establishment of a light rail line between the city and the port down Port Road, using those Resturant Trams.

Whilst it may be of good use, the facilities are starting to become outdated. Meshing a new Entertainment Centre with a stadium on the rail yards is my preference!

Ugh! I hate that old whinebag.

Ms Moran "protesteth too much".

I'm still sceptical. I'll believe it when its concreted talk and not wishtalk.
Btw - I thought the upgrade was around the 400-600 million figure. Not 250.

The office suites contianed are being sold at a mere $189,900. Theres an advert in the tiser.

given that it is 2007 now - and by 2050, the suggestions seems to be that traffic travel time will take an extra 43 minutes? I dont think so.
mabye an extra 20-25 minutes given the growth of the southern suburbs, and it is definitely likely that by 2050 the railway will have been extended to aldinga ...

I'd rather the idea of compulsorarily acquiring a city block, preferably in the south end of the city adjacent to one of the squares.
