Is there any chance whatsoever of trams returning to Norwood, now that the LNP is finally out of office for a few years? I think a route along KW Rd where the 200 bus route goes could prove useful. But it has to be able to outpace the current bus service. It is quite a bit quicker on a bus from sou...

For what it's worth, apartments in this one are listed online: https://www.realestate.com.au/property- ... -139190319

How can they be selling the apartments if the project still hasn't been approved?

Demo almost complete on the sixth hurtle and co site, so imagine this one will start construction soon. This will be the last one Sent from my SM-A515F using Tapatalk Well, it is being advertised as the last. It will be the last one on Hurtle Square itself... most likely - as there aren't any furth...

The flight path issues relate to the helipad on top of the RAH and safe access for the helicopters. And please no one be stupid enough to suggest that they should build the helipad higher. It would hardly be a stupid thing to suggest. Like I said in my previous post, it was incredibly short-sighted...

Why don't they just build it taller? I don't think the flight path should be an obstacle - a 107 metre tall building has been approved just over the road on the corner of West Terrace and North Terrace. A couple of extra levels on the existing RAH and new Women's and Children to add the extra beds s...

We don't know that yet. Why would they do this for free? Because they have seen a potential market for their product and they want to demonstrate to us how well it works so that down the track we buy it from them. It is the same principle as why vendors in the Central Market give away free samples o...

There’s not “extreme demand” in the CBD though, that’s reflected by the fact many proposals haven’t yet got up. There’s definitely demand for high quality developments, but high quality doesn’t necessarily equal taller. Exactly, the Adelaide CBD still has a huge supply of easily developable and app...

Don't be daft. It's inconvenient but not a death sentence for The Mill. They've brought life a vacant low-grade commercial space; there are many more they can revive. It's all well and good to point out the empty lot across the road, but that's not what the developer owns. More residents is a Good ...

I drove out to Virginia yesterday, first time I've been through Regency Park since before construction started. Smooth sailing from the Torrens onwards, the two sections felt like they'd been built at the same time, blended seamlessly. Driving on the grooved concrete of the northern connector felt ...

Piping our stormwater out to sea is such a massive waste. When you consider the scale of the area of impermeable surfaces across Adelaide and our annual rainfall, this surely amounts to an enormous quantity of water. Imagine how much agricultural land could be irrigated and used more intensively and...

Compared to other cities around the world, our trains are slow to accelerate. Is there a reason for this? Could the 4000 class trains accelerate faster? I think they can, if memory serves they don't for safety reasons, on account of all our level crossings, especially the pedestrian ones at either ...

The intersection of Magill Rd and Penfold/St Bernards, where the Magill Village precinct is happening, was also the original terminus for the 1st generation Magill tram line, opened in 1911 (it was later extended to reach Norton Summit Rd in 1912). I could easily see the Village precinct becoming a...

If you want to attract artists, you need trams. Extending the botanic gardens tram along Magill Road makes a lot of sense. Unlike the plans to extend it along the Parade, with Magill Road you don't have any corners, so the tram is faster and easier to construct. I agree in principle with massively ...

Considering the overall investment, I'm surprised they haven't put a little more toward the project and create a M2-grade link between the Southern Expressway and this portion of Victor Harbour Road. That would need grade separated intersections at the end of the expressway and at Victor Harbor Roa...

The loser ABC and loser Greens collaborating..what a shock. Lol Its a state and local government failure. Instead off proper on/off ramps they're putting traffic lights in. That should spell it out. The majority of residents will be travelling for work, obviously. They're solution is to slow and im...
