New Darlington video released. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOYD5EBRJ0U aOYD5EBRJ0U Thanks for that - looks like a pretty substantial immediate improvement for users of this stretch of road. Southbound - the expressway now will effectively start at Ayliffes road and use the trench from there. No...

A 220m section of shoddy concrete between two pieces that dramatically dropped off the South Rd Darlington Upgrade will be totally replaced, possibly as soon as today. The State Government has confirmed that works will start this week, weather permitting, to take down the existing shotcrete between...

Could brighton station also be removed, leaving one new mega "brighton" station to replace Brighton, Hove and Warradale, situated under or over brighton road.

I keep hearing that three stations are or could be on the chopping board on the Seaford line. Has anyone else heard this information and which ones? It seems fairly evident that one of Hove, Brighton and Warradale will go with the Brighton overpass. Warradale is only 540m from Oaklands which is a b...

Fairly sure they are temporary.

Looks like it’ll be the latter: all southbound traffic diverted into the trench allowing for repairs, while the current southbound surface road between Sturt and Flinders will be reduced to allow repairs. The way those lines are painted, northbound SEXY traffic will be in the trench too. Either tha...

Screenshot from a friend's short video. https://i.imgur.com/wyWC767.png Looks like they are only a few weeks away from the next traffic switch, which my guess is going to start the expressway, southbound, from just after ailyffes road. It initially travels on the the left side of the trench before ...

Pretty telling comment. If you think private companies dont invest in their diversity and inclusion strategies then I question whether you've actually been engaged by an employer with a national or multinational presence. It's not some pinko time waster dreamed up by public servants. I've worked fo...

With all of the above, why, then, over the past 25 years is Melbourne the only other city to outsource the metropolitan train system, and not Brisbane, Perth or Sydney despite stints of Liberal Governments in those states? Unions and because it’s easier not to. It’s worth mentioning though that Syd...

This is a nonsense to me. For one, it's a red herring -- the issue at hand is a better public service, not stripping worker entitlements (of which, there's no evidence of them currently being an organisational or operational focus). For another, these sorts of CSR activities are both a standard par...

So something - something more than broad hand waving statements about 'efficiencies' and unsubstantiated neolib thinking re: state provisions of services - has to give. Fewer services or higher fares. Achieving the same, or better outcomes with half as many staff, which the private sector is perfec...
