I think it looks sensational! With just this modest tramline extension it will pave the way for further extensions throughout the city perimeter, to North Adelaide/ Melbourne St and the Port! Can one person dare to dream......and have Rundle Street blocked off to traffic paved and replaced with Tram...

[COM]

it still isnt any clearer from the PDF or the video whether the underpass will terminate before the tram line and if so where does the tramline go? does it go under south road or will it go over (bridge)...because if the underpass terminates at the tramline then it wont be speeding up any traffic!! ...

Gentlemen.... The point shouldnt be a political mudslinging contest. i.e. the liberals did this and labor did that.... The government whether it is liberal or labor will govern according to a set code pre-determined by a number of events most of which occur globally. Whether you support liberal or l...

ER It sounds to me that it isnt a problem with the unit itself (ie hardware) I think the software might be a bit weak....What software is it running ( i.e whereis, co-pilot, sensis, destinator) Although i dont have a SAT NAV kit, im told that co-pilot 6 is quite intuitive....However, there isn't any...

It is not like they are goingto rip up the rail tracks either.. i believe they plan to build over them a la hyatt, convention centre etc.. Each case for development in the ...

crawf, i think your right something like this wont happen for a very long time....I think its needed though! BDM even if the carpark is not proposed but approved it wouldnt matter anyway..car parking is a premium these days in a city...It wont go to waste it will get used and it will be profitable.....
