DPTI South Australia have also published a new South Road video. It's on an upgrade project a bit further south.

The Aldinga concept looks quite good (although not a fan of 70 around the town) but I think the uturn lane is a bit far out if intended for Little Road. They'd be better off re-opening Flour Mill Road (as they said it is undergoing community feedback) as that would link to Little Road much easier. I know Flour Mill isn't in the best condition, but is really not much worse than Little Road anyway .
Looking forward to a free-flowing Adelaide!

Here's some vision of the new Kings Road/Bolivar Road intersection for those who haven't seen it:

Looks so much better. That T-section (Kings/Bolivar Road) was a nightmare.

I wish someone would fix Daws/South Roads - its the worst intersection I know of in the city

The main issue is turning right from all directions - the lanes are too short and narrow.

Great start, though with large increase in population and traffic down there combined with the terrible surface, the entire Seaford-Sellicks part of it needs upgrading

Went through South/Grange in the wee hours of Saturday morning and they were being lifted into place.
