Under the new planning system, SCAP will assess this proposal not the Town of Walkerville.

[PRO] Re: Buckingham Arms | 10lvs | $150m

If Park Royal at Kent Town can't get off the ground, which I argue is probably the prime site of all inner city parklands adjacent sites closest to the city - what hope is there that this one will? You're right. There's a good chance it's just a p...

[U/C] Re: Port Adelaide Dock Spur Line

Apologies if any of what I say has been covered already.

[U/C] Re: Ovingham Level Crossing Removal | $231m

Images of the Ovingham train station have been released by the PTP Alliance. They are completely underwhelming considering this station has a budget of $10m! https://ptpa.com.au/projects/ovinghamcrossing#gallery-23-1 It has a glorified bus shelter and a bit of landscaping. For that budget, I would’...

Let's not forget that Hawker Street is a 40km/h road through a residential area - not a main arterial.
It's always been a secondary road though, not just a backstreet.

Not that you spend much time there, unless you are waiting for the lifts.
Great in winter no doubt, though...

picture those horrid northerly winds barreling straight down into the oval, pummeling your faces with shards of icy cold terror. It will be a nightmare. I'd love to know what "icy cold terror" any northerly could bring? You do know your Australian geography and basic meteorology, right? S...
