Re: News & Discussion: National Broadband Network
So this isn't a General upgrade to FttP for the listed suburbs, you have to elect to upgrade to a plan based on "Home Fast" (100Mbps) if you're on FttN or "Home Super Fast" (200Mbps?) if you're already on FttC, in order to get the upgrade? Ahhh... what about people who can't affo...

[U/C] Re: M2 North-South Motorway
Is it just me or is this section looking like it is going to live up to the "Roller Coaster" nickname much of the rest of the Corridor is earning? Looking at those drawings, it looks like the motorway emerges from the tunnels and returns to grade, or very close to it, before diving again i...

[U/C] Re: Main South Road & Victor Harbor Road Upgrade
The roundabout at Port Road and the 2+1 to the north was completed in around 2016. While I know that further upgrades of South Rd are needed, why are sections that have been so recently upgraded being reworked? It screams of poor planning and reminds me of Oaklands Station, and I can see it current...

[U/C] Re: Main South Road & Victor Harbor Road Upgrade
For the Victor Harbor Road section, unfortunately this project has been scaled back. The 2+2 layout will only go as far as the existing McLaren Vale overpass, with a roundabout at Robinson and Quarry Roads. For the remaining section between McLaren Vale and Willunga, a "planning study" wi...

[U/C] Re: Main South Road & Victor Harbor Road Upgrade
Any direct link between the Southern Expressway and Victor Harbor Road will require bridges over the Onkaparinga River and also significant cuttings into the hilly landscape around it. You would also be going through the Onkaparinga River National Park, which could be problematic. There are a lot o...

[U/C] Re: Main South Road & Victor Harbor Road Upgrade
I guess that's where property acquisition and possibly access roads parallel to Main South Road can come into play. Hopefully this upgrade sees the removal of the traffic lights at the southern end of the Southern Expressway. Unfortunately they won't. These upgrades start well south of the end of t...

[U/C] Re: Main South Road & Victor Harbor Road Upgrade
You appear to be dead against roundabouts, even though the concept plan appears to make them quite wide with smooth entry and exits ramps. Do you prefer traffic lights as are being installed at the Port Wakefield and Angle Vale Road intersection? Those traffic lights will be the only set between th...

I thought The the Victor Harbor Road Duplication and the Main South Road Duplication were separate Projects, now suddenly they've been merged into the same budget? They probably did it to have the same contractors work on both projects at the same time, which could save costs in administration and ...
