Key word being BELAIR LINE , referring to the passenger line terminating at Belair, not the freight line running parallel to it and continuing past Belair... These two lines operate separately to each other. One does not impact on the other in any way except for where the Freight line crosses the N...

They've also got cranes just by the Marion Road exit. Does anyone know if these are doing anything of significance? As part of the Expressway duplication, and the New Marion Rd entry/Exit point. The water main that runs to the large tank on the corner of Marion & South Rds, needs to be shifted....

Heard the Southern Expressway will be closed at times later this week (thu/fri/sat) due to blasting for the Seacombe Road Bridge works. Closure from 9.30am to 3.30pm (Non peak times) Thursday & Friday (Variable message boards showing this message yesterday arvo). More Blasting, and more works t...

Transfield Services(operating as Light-City Buses) will begin operating tomorrow from a new depot at Gillman. Buses being transferred from Morphettville and St.Agnes Depots.This will save them time,dead running,fuel etc/ Some buses have been stabled there during non peak hours, on weekdays only for...

For the Convention Centre extension, the work should be scheduled to confine the hazardous movements to nights when the trains aren't running. The occasional weekend closure may be justified, but an eztended closure during the time when lots of people work in the City certainly isn't. And I think y...

Bridge still not linked as of today. I think the Adelaide Now story was done to early, At the Northern casting basin, workers still have the framework in place for anther segment to be cast. A concrete pump was setting up onsite this afternoon, possibly for a concrete pour tomorrow? Meanwhile elsewh...

Some photos of Today's Works. The Last gap to be Filled on the Onkaparinga Valley Rail Bridge. Usually when the Northern Spans are pushed out, River Road is closed, usually with message boards about a week in advance. So far no signs have been spotted. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7252/7780401378_0...

Hi all, Got a chance today to have a good look at the progress of works. Not alot of new work between Noarlunga Centre and the Estuary Bridge, some plants have been planted on the Western bank of the cutting adjacent the Goldsmith Drive Bridge. The Rail bridge over the Onkaparinga estuary, is close ...

thanks for your photo updates 85trainfan. This project is almost on its final stages. When is the full electrification going to completed because at this rate the extension will be completed before we get new electric trains and we wont have enough existing trains to cover the new extension. One wo...

Looking at the latest NearMap, it seems like they are prepping the Tonsley Line for duplication. What do you guys think? The current works on the Tonsley line are Signal cable replacement (to cope with Electrification) and Drainage works. Anther interesting item to note, the Points leading into the...

I am curious as to why the south is getting another rail extension with Australia's first high speed rail line, yet the North cant even get electrified. :sly: Pre election stunt, :D Some areas down sth have already started getting material from both major parties (fed and local) Flying pigs are mor...

Update time again :) Project coming along nicely, with the bridge making a big difference to the landscape now. no new work between Noarlunga Centre and the Onkaparinga Rail Bridge, with the exception of landscaping contractors replacing the footpaths under the Old honeypot Rd Bridge. Concreting was...

Not alot of new work between Noarlunga Centre and the Old Honeypot rd Bridge, apart from the landscaping contractors using the Jefferies sprayer truck to place mulch onto the sides of the embankment. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7249/7580932968_3ca841d4a8_m.jpg Today saw anther Bridge segment pushe...

Without wanting to sound naive, but why do they need to close south road for the blasting? Surely debris wouldn't make it's way to south road from the expressway. That's if I am thinking of the correct location. I'm assuming it's the south road hill as you past the Victoria hotel, yes? South Rd was...

Electrification works are continuing on the Noarlunga Centre line (Should start calling it the "Seaford Line") A small work site has been setup south of Christies Downs station, on the down track, with 2 piles of poles already onsite, and a small area leveled (looks just about the right si...
