This may require more tram stops. And North Terrace (Kent Town) can be very busy - are you sure you want the trams to go th...

The existing arrangements are insufficient for the capacity. Traffic lights should've been installed ten or more years ago, and we should be replacing them with an overpass now. But slow progress is better than no progress. There seems to have been quite a spate of traffic light installation in the...

Adelaide once had one of the biggest network of tramlines in Australia, however since the late 20th century all lines (except Glenelg Line) were ripped up and replaced with buses which have less capacity, are slow getting through traffic especially during peak periods and are seen as unattractive.

There are no plans to electrify the Belair Train Line it also suffers from infrequent, slow, indirect and low patronage thus disencouraging people to use the public transport corridor and not value for money for South Australians.

Are big businesses running the small businesses in your local area out of town? I am sure you know what i mean where by small business has been serving the community for a long time only to be driven out of town by big business who couldnt careless about the local community.

Who went to the Skyshow? I know i did, great concert, atmosphere, appeared alot more people attended than the previous Skyshow held at Bonython Park. The night ended with two firework displays at the same time. I think it was a good move to held it in March, hope it returns in 2011.

According to a Wikipedia article (Obahn busway) one of the the proposals involved running the Obahn alongside the Tonsley Line (replacing the Tonsley branch). It was estimated to costs about $182M. My proposal would involve duplication the current Southern Expressway corridor to Panalatinga Road exi...
