[U/C] Re: Port Adelaide Dock Spur Line
Reposting a Port to Semaphore tram concept from several years ago that I resurrected last year. Since the lines would be completely separated from the main network, could be a great chance to explore alternative power options with short sections of battery operation or ground-supplied power. A tram...

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Trains
Is there any indication as to when the pedestrian crossings at North Adelaide, Ovingham and Islington will be switched on? And further to that, when the Gawler line will 100% be electric? Sorry if this has been posted previously but can't find any info. The Ovingham N crossing had been scheduled fo...

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Airport & Airlines
So they will fly at about the same time as Malaysia Airlines. It makes no sense, if one of them flies in the morning, the other in the evening, it would be more convenient for everyone.

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide City Council
Pleased to see this week an acknowledgement, led by the new Lord Mayor, that maintenance of the city and its parklands has been profoundly neglected in recent years. It seems moves are underway to finally pull us out of a shabby decline: https://indaily.com.au/opinion/2023/04/24/autumn-leaves-cant-...

[PRO] Re: Masonic Lodge | 183m | 42 Levels | Mixed Use
I was upset about the height decrease to 183m instead of 187, but like literally... its only 4 metres it'll still be hella tall compared to what we have now I think it'll be good for Adelaide yes we'll only be 50 years behind when a building of that height was Melbourne's tallest :banana: ...and Pe...

Re: News & Discussion: Electricity Infrastructure
https://indaily.com.au/news/2023/03/31/burying-sa-powerlines-to-cost-between-40-to-60-billion/ There's no reason it has to be done by SAPN. If councils want powerlines undergrounded, they can build their own underground network in competition to SAPN. That way the network is re-nationalised, but th...

Re: Petrol Station Owners
How will this work with the Coles 4 c/L fuel discount at Coles Express? Everything is usually cheaper at Coles Express than other servos, so it will be disappointing to see them leave. All the more reason to buy an electric car.

How will the EAF be powered? Can it be shut down when renewable energy is not available or do these EAFs need to run 24/7?

Re: News & Discussion: Roads & Traffic
The main problem is you would realistically only have one train a day and if your truck arrives at the train station just after the train leaves, too bad, the truck has to wait another day. Or you can drive the truck to the destination. The only way this would work is if it was compulsory or there w...

Re: Gepps Cross intersection
The number of paths vehicles can take through an intersection is n*(n-1), where n is the number of roads leading to the intersection. A normal four road intersection has 12 possible paths, five roads like Gepps Cross has 20. The traffic lights need to give each of these 20 paths a go every cycle, so...

Re: News & Discussion: Electricity Infrastructure
The 22% increase is going to be an absolutely massive hit to already struggling households. And the recession hasn't even technically hit yet. We're in for a dire couple of years. Is the increase in consumption tariffs or the daily tariff? If it's consumption tariffs, then we're going to see more h...
