Re: News & Discussion: Electricity Infrastructure
It's almost like something is leaning on the scales to keep the retail price of electricity to consumers high and climbing, independent of what technology is used to generate it, and that no matter how often someone in government claims something will make it cheaper, the only solution that will act...

[U/C] Re: M2 North-South Motorway
Where they merge from 3 to 2 on the ramp up now is where the new section will start, another 800m or so of straightline trench before getting to the cut and cover tunnel entrance underneath the new Celtic Rd overpass (the proper bored tunnel doesn't start until roughly where the big self storage pla...

Re: News & Discussion: Trams
It also reported David Pisoni as banging on about the North Terrace "right turn". I thought that even the Liberals, in government, buried that idea. It's stupid. When in government, I'm sure they were informed of that by all and sundry. While it's possible, physically, traffic already ban...

The entire building is already local heritage listed, they're pushing for the entire building to move up to state heritage listed. They set a new record for public submissions, so we'll see how long it takes to go through it all

The South Australian Heritage Council has provisionally entered the Crown and Anchor Hotel (Grenfell Street, Adelaide), in the South Australian Heritage Register and is seeking submissions.

[U/C] Re: M2 North-South Motorway
Not a strong rumour, it’s actually happening. They need to widen the road corridor beneath the overpass to accomodate the massive corridor for the motorway ramps and tunnel portal. You can see the sheer scale on the interactive T2D map. The Marion/Cross Road overpass is going to be built at the sam...

[U/C] Re: M2 North-South Motorway
Back on track, I heard a strong rumour from a well placed source on the weekend that the less than 15 year old South Rd tram bridge needs to be pulled down and replaced, because the engineers can't figure out a way to make the pylons and the passanger entrances safely integrate into the finish secti...

Re: Merger of the Universities of Adelaide and South Australia
I for one am shocked to learn that the biggest winner out of all this will be the developers that the government are flogging off "excess" Uni land in Mawson Lakes and Magill to, utterly shocked

[SWP] Re: Lot 14 (Old RAH Site)
I'm trying to figure out what they're gunning so hard to use the site for instead, because switching back to the original Contemporary plans doesn't seem like something the Labor Right, Liberal Lite state government of today would be interested in either.

Re: News & Discussion: General CBD Development
Great to see this building being refurbished at this landmark location. I just wish it was actual apartments for sale rather than more serviced apartments. True, but on the other hand there's no such thing as a modern and affordable CBD apartment these days, whereas every new hotel room/serviced ap...
