Still needs to get Building Rules Consent from what I understand. Until we see that, nothing will be happening on site.

Drove past today and the northbound ramp has ramp metering signals. Good stuff.

Whereabouts are these new ramp metering signals?

Can anyone explain why this is so important ?

It matters because ICAM will eventually have control over the tenancy mix in the Market Square retail precinct.

imagine thinking this is an equivalence to opening a single hotel building under construction

the mental gymnastics required to win at internet is strong in this one


It doesn’t mean the entire hotel has to open by that time. Just some of the lower level of the hotel can start opening up ...

For 2027 to be achieved, construction has to commence by the end of this year then.

No the car park columns in this area were designed to take a large tower in the hope that it would eveuntually approved.

So what works are happening in the basement car park then?

Forgive my ignorance, but I thought the carpark substructure and columns were built with the second tower provisions already in place?


The carpark structure was only designed to support the originally proposed 3 level plaza building. Looks like the basement is currently being cut open to allow ...

This is great news. Mount Gambier is in desperate need of modern hotel accommodation options.

Are we getting short-changed by Singapore Airlines? No, not by the number of flights they are currently offering (10-times a week) which is better than daily, but their on time performance. It seems many flights out of Changi are departing late, arriving late here and further delays on the return ...

The well-spoken @Micbara was on the ABC Radio broadcast today. He said that the previous plans to incorporate a SA history museum component into the building did not receive funding/support from the state government, so instead they have opted to increase the hotel portion of the building. From ...

I don't think that's the crane pad. Looks like a pad footing with starter bars for columns. Crane pad would be near the front of the site.

I'd like to think this is a bottleneck rather than severe induced demand.

I haven't heard what the current design offers to avoid the same thing northbound at Anzac Highway since the flyover was replaced in the design by traffic lights.

I assume they're forecasting a lot of the city bound ...

Post on linked in by Auta say they expect to top out in December this year!

That is exciting!
But in my opinion is unrealistic, or just a lie, however you wanna take it. They are building level 18 at the moment, and they started construction at the beginning of July 2023, so more than a year ...

Ok my OCD is in overdrive.
Why is there a horizontal strut missing on one of the lower floors?

There's no missing struts. The loads from the upper floors are transferred to the columns via the larger beams just above the driveways to prevent vehicle access being obstructed.
