Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Trains
I work fully remote in a company that is full remote. We all are very productive. Why do you say it is inefficient? It's just a change of mindset that is needed It's just his opinion. I'll be extremely surprised if you get an explanation. cities exist for a reason central business districts exist f...

Re: Allow high density building in the South
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...

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Trains
and how would you encourage people to live in those places? Embracing full remote work. Starting with a lot of government jobs, and giving incentives to companies that do the same sounds inefficient to me I work fully remote in a company that is full remote. We all are very productive. Why do you s...

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Trains
Rather than build new areas in outskirts of Adelaide I think we need to build up and encourage people to live in regional cities instead , for example Murray Bridge and Wallaroo. and how would you encourage people to live in those places? Embracing full remote work. Starting with a lot of governmen...

Re: News & Discussion: Trams
Ahh, never change, Adelaide: Big Country Town Mentality. Go to line isn't it chilli. Used multiple times now on the tram thread and train thread and again on the parlands thread. Priorities change over time which require greater focus and more importantly $$$ (such as ramping). I'm sure Labour woul...

Cycling lane from Brighton to Largs Bay along the coast
Being Adelaide so backwards when it comes to cycling infrastructure, it would be nice to at least have a proper cycling lane that goes all the way from Brighton to Largs Bay. At several points along that route there are some cycling lanes, but in many others it is a shared path, which makes cyclist ...

Glenelg and Brighton pedestrian streets
Since the building of the two parking lots with 2 hours of free parking in Glenelg, there is a good opportunity to remove the parking spaces along Jetty road and extend the pedestrian area and maybe outdoor seating for restaurants. I can't understand what is the point on keeping approximately 30 par...

Adelaide Fish Market
It is quite surprising that Adelaide doesn't have a proper fish market. There are countless examples of amazing fish market experiences in Asian countries, where people can buy fresh fish and also eat in restaurants and small stands.
Isn't it about time we start planning for one?

Storm drain issues
Hi all, I was wondering if this topic has already been discussed before. As the city continues to grow I have observed that the rain water draining to the ocean after every rain is more and more polluted and contaminated. This is direct effect of an increase in population, and as population is expec...

Moving the airport to a less populated area
Hi all, This is more a question than a suggestion. How feasible do you think it would be to move the airport from the current location to a place that is not so populated. I think the biggest think to consider would be connectivity between the airport and the city, in the form of a train and a highw...

New Madrid Style Food Market on East End
Seeing how the Central Market is such a success and how crowded it usually gets, how about we create a new one in the East End? If you have ever been to Madrid I am sure you went to the Mercado de San Miguel. We could build something like that, with smallish stalls and great food and drinks. I know ...

Re: Extending the Riverbank and moving railtracks underground
Yes, I have seen the rail tunnel posts, I love that idea. I see what you mean about the hesitation, once you develop that area would be near impossible to change it.
