Will be great for the area, but this still gets to me: I hear ya! it's annoying that they have blinkers on and believe retail is all about food & coffee. I see they have tried to remedy the inability to locate a chemist in the area by offering free delivery from 2 nearby chemists. I guess that ...

It puzzles me that the focus is to (re-)extend rail to Concordia because the government has "released for housing" some land there. There are several hundred hectares of land on the northern end of the current suburbs (south of Gawler) that were released for housing by the Rann government...

The AFL Store on King William Street (where a chemist was) has unknowingly shut its doors again after just six years. (It first opened next to Southern Cross Arcade in the mid 2000s but closed in the early 2010s) I feel very bad for the people who have to consume petrol and their own time trekking ...

Will be great for the area, but this still gets to me: But planning consultants Future Urban, on behalf of Sentinel, argued the small-scale retail offering was “appropriate” because the complex is located next to Plant 4. They also said the retail tenancy will “still offer an additional service to t...

Decision day today. SCAP to recommend approval.

Am I reading this right? A business lobby who traditionally advocates on behalf of motorists, is advocating for better public transport services? Should have been done ten years ago but better late than never. RAA have usually been quite good at advocating for better non-road transport. But yes, be...

Unfortunately, it takes an emotional toll when running afoul of the 'law', with some.

Re the chip, use your imagination. Or you could ask them directly. They're installed by a laser at birth, whilst the mother is looking away. Only takes a few seconds.

I'm concerned. There are no microchips.

This makes me wonder if the actual physical card is still essential nowadays. The revenue officers/whoever don't give a rats whether or not you actually have a ticket. They only care about their pockets being replenished with $. There should be an option to travel without a card. Personally, I don'...

$6b on a rail tunnel wouldn't be just to the Hills/Mt Barker - it would be beyond, potentially opening up the whole south-east of SA to viable passenger rail. If we can spend $15b for an unsustainable 10km hole in the ground to benefit the false economy of road freight, then $6b is petty cash for a...

To expand on the investment/light rail discussion connected to this location, the new basement area planned as part of this project would segue very well to a new Victoria Square railway station in future.

This is a very disappointing decision. While I do value the need to avoid cutting down trees where possible this $35m spend just polishes a turd, and does not benefit cyclists. Existing dangers and poor infrastructure beyond the overpass exist. I have started calling these decisions/outcomes 'Big Co...

Sensational Adelaide geeting a metion in the Advertiser this morning: South Australians have mixed emotions about the new Myer Centre building as upgrades nearly complete South Australians are expressing mixed feelings about the upgrade to the ­facade of Rundle Mall’s Myer Centre, with some shopper...

Uniqlo Marion "opening Autumn" confirmed on their FB. Good result for Adelaide to have two stores now, the city store is always busy anytime I'm there, and I hope do well at Marion. Based on the popularity of their Rundle Mall store, hopefully the Marion footprint is larger. Yeah, the Run...
