It was foolish and short sighted of Government to think they can build the Northern Expressway and not widen main roads feeding to and from it.

It seems Rundle mall is just a giant chess board of shops closing and relocating in new locations. Hardly ever any new stores coming through
I am surprised Big W hasn't open in the mall, i know Woolworths used to have a variety store bit on ground level.

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Trains

Short term a new bus route , lets say 409 run from Settlers Farm to Modbury via Kings Road and McIntyre Road. Long term make it light rail or Tway style busway.

[VIS] Re: Passenger Trains to Mount Barker

In theory a trial could be done asap.

Trial a train service from Mt Lofty Station to Goodwood or temporary platform at Mile End. If at Mile End it could be timed to connect with a metro service or bus shuttle from Mile End to City.

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Trains
