2018 South Australian State Election

Re: 2018 South Australian State Election
Is it significant that none of them mentioned the Gawler railway line (except for the Salisbury level crossing) or the rest of the north-south corridor? Even Emerson Crossing is not listed with the level crossings.
Re: 2018 South Australian State Election
Hopefully. IMO they should just start building all the tram lines simultaneously. Night works to minimize day time disruptions to traffic.
And what a difference the removal of the train crossing at Torrens road would make. No more waiting for damn freight trains.

Campaign wrap-up for today
SA election campaign tackles Adelaide's north-south corridor and level crossings removal
By political reporter Leah MacLennan
Posted about 4 hours ago
Roads and rail have been the latest focus of South Australian election campaigning, with the Opposition Liberals promising to look at the business case for improving Adelaide's north-south corridor and Labor saying more about its plans to remove seven level crossings.
The Opposition promised to spend $2.5 million developing a business case for more South Road and connector route improvements, with its leader Steven Marshall accusing Labor of planning shortfalls.
He said Labor's lack of detail was why the north-south corridor had not received more federal funding.
"We first made this commitment in 2013. We negotiated with the Federal Government to get their buy-in for a continuously flowing north-south corridor," he said.
"The Labor Party has dropped the ball. They haven't done the detailed costing and planning and business case that is necessary to get buy-in from Infrastructure Australia and buy-in from the Federal Government."
Parts of a north-south corridor are already completed or well underway, such as the Torrens to Torrens section of South Road and its Darlington upgrade.
Pledge to manage roadworks congestion
Meanwhile, Premier Jay Weatherill gave more detail of Labor's $2 billion infrastructure plan, revealing $1.33 billion would be spent to remove seven suburban level crossings to ease congestion.
Labor would establish a crossing removal authority to oversee the program, he said, and $5 million would be spent on helping communities cope during the road and rail works.
"[We would] work with the people in and around these level crossings to make sure the businesses and the community are not adversely affected," Mr Weatherill said.
The plan would leave less than $700 million of infrastructure funding for other promised projects, such as tram line extensions or building a bulk commodities port on Spencer Gulf.
Mr Marshall expressed doubt those projects could be delivered by Labor.
"They make huge promises in the lead-up to elections but they very rarely deliver on those commitments after elections," he said.
Transport and Infrastructure Minister Stephen Mullighan said the Government had been working through a list of priorities since it developed a strategy back in 2015.
"That set out a 30-year menu of improvements to our roads, to our rail networks, to the extension to our tram network, as well as other infrastructure like port facilities," Mr Mullighan said.
"We've been delivering on that plan. In fact, we're ahead of the timelines on many of the projects that we released in 2015."
Re: 2018 South Australian State Election
I presume it would come from the same kitty as the libs pie in the sky monarto freight hub and the redundant road/rail corridor which goes with it.
Re: 2018 South Australian State Election
Perhaps.
But Labor have a pretty good track record of tax hikes.

Re: 2018 South Australian State Election
Most parties seem happy to talk about wanting to complete the north-south non-stop corridor.
I wonder whether any of them would be prepared to front up to an election proposing to dig a cut-and-cover tunnel that crosses both Henley Beach Road and Sir Donald Bradman Drive. It will be lovely when it's finished, but I can imagine The Advertiser and the Opposition (whever they are) having a field day about cutting off the western suburbs for a year or more while it's happening.

Re: 2018 South Australian State Election
I hope you're right about the CBD tram loop. It's the most inexpensive leg of the AdeLINK tram network, but the one with the greatest potential to attract significant amount of private sector investment in residential apartments, providing a further boost to the momentum in the CBD at the moment.Norman wrote: ↑Sun Feb 18, 2018 7:12 pmI've read most of those and attended a few of the open days.

I think its clear that Libs and Labor want this done, I believe the Libs have put some money towards a study? and the creation of the infrastructure body to organise infrastructure in the state and Labor have committed to it as well.
I think the best position is to have both sides on the same focus, I do feel sorry for the residents however.
Re: 2018 South Australian State Election
I also read that Liberals are proposing $2.5m for another study of the North-South roadway too. How many more studies need to be done. Didn't labor complete one for the entire stretch a few years ago? Just get on with it. Its stalling tactics.Waewick wrote: ↑Tue Feb 20, 2018 9:37 amI think its clear that Libs and Labor want this done, I believe the Libs have put some money towards a study? and the creation of the infrastructure body to organise infrastructure in the state and Labor have committed to it as well.SBD wrote: ↑Mon Feb 19, 2018 10:58 pmMost parties seem happy to talk about wanting to complete the north-south non-stop corridor.

Re: 2018 South Australian State Election
So which of the three contenders is promising to shake things up and do something revolutionary for our state?
So far I've seen three candidates promise the same sort of shit they always do.

Re: 2018 South Australian State Election
Missed the full announcement so my details are sketchy but Jay just promised:
We’re stepping in where the Federal Liberal Government has failed; under a re-elected Labor Government, Adelaide will have the fastest, cheapest internet speeds in the nation.

Re: 2018 South Australian State Election
Full announcement video is now up on Jay's Facebook page.
Essentially a $35 million extension of the existing fibre optic network out into the suburbs, resulting in data speeds equal to the fastest in the world.
I really think the government's onto a winner with turning the state into a high tech hub - I really hope they get another term to keep the momentum in place as I get the Libs' idea of creating jobs and industry doesn't stretch beyond activities involving hitting pig iron with lump hammers.

SA Best have released their campaign video, needless to say it was probably directed by Tommy Wiseau.
