Elder Smith Rd bridge was clearly designed to be upgraded to 4 lanes. The earthworks are already 4 lanes wide. So why was it built as a one lane road? Earthworks are just soil, unless they're actually serving their intended purpose. The same reason the Southern Expressway was built only one-way... ...

Cross Road/Marion Road followed by South Road followed by the Seaford/Flinders/Belair line. Three bunny hops in a row. I almost wonder if it would be better to just raise up the section of tramline between Cross Road and Goodwood station and enable even more roads to go underneath.

Flinders train was so late it ended up arriving after the time it was scheduled to depart.

It left the station very shortly after it arrived.

It's so ugly! If I was making a movie about a soulless dystopian future, this is the type of building I'd put in.

At Nth Adelaide Station the ARTC line does have a separate crossing. However at Torrens Jn (where this week's incident took place) there is a single crossing across all 3 tracks which is activated by either ARTC or DTI trains. Does that mean if a goods train was passing pedestrians would be prevent...

The photo in the article shows an Adelaide Metro railcar, but no where has anyone said that's what struck him. There's also the ARTC track there and goods trains take a lot longer to stop. They're also going quite fast, they can come from either direction and because they are less frequent, pedestr...

It looks like there was a derailment near Mawson Lakes interchange.

The ARTC track has its own set of active pedestrian gates that operate separately from the Adelaide Metro tracks. At Nth Adelaide Station the ARTC line does have a separate crossing. However at Torrens Jn (where this week's incident took place) there is a single crossing across all 3 tracks which i...

Very sad news. But why that particular spot?

It’s a shame that the northern end of the concourse is closed off to the platforms. What’s inside that closed space next to the InfoCentre, between the concourse and Platforms 4-9? a hotel basement? Nothing to do with the hotel. This space existed long before. On the concourse side, it’s between th...

I don't think they want people milling around right in front of the turnstiles looking at the screens Respectfully, if they didn’t want people milling about next to the turnstiles then they should’ve put the departure screens in a better location. If you enter from the North Terrace escalator, the ...

why? Its only about 3 feet deep if you ever seen it drained not that we'll ever see an underground line anywhere in Adelaide in our lifetimes Sure but how much water is underneath the lakebed? How much water is in Sydney Harbour? Yet they've tunnelled there for their metro. Anyhow, they don't need ...

It is a very nice concept. Unfortunately, if they ever go underground, they'll probably avoid tunneling under the Torrens. why? Its only about 3 feet deep if you ever seen it drained not that we'll ever see an underground line anywhere in Adelaide in our lifetimes Sure but how much water is underne...

I like the idea of the Gawler line travelling underground through the CBD and connecting with the Seaford Line. They're the lines with the highest usage so let's connect them up and run them as a proper metro service, and get building along both lines. As for north meets south, there's a similar ar...
