efforts to link return of 3,000m2 of Park Lands to new alienation of Park Lands. The
land proposed for return could be returned to Park Lands regardless of whether the
O-Bahn City Access Project goes ahead or not
In the dot point about that one, they claim they agree with the government on increasing PT usage.
They then say that Rundle Rd between Rundle and Rymil Parks should be turned into park lands anyway. I guess the buses and trams and trains will all get along by magic.
APPA believes the Government's proposal is over-reaching, in that instead of just
prioritising O-Bahn buses, the Government wants to prioritise all vehicular traffic with a
ground-level highway that would cut a broad swathe through one of the most popular parts
of Adelaide's National Heritage-listed Park Lands.
Highway? Does anyone else see a proposal for a highway?
They are complaining that part of the parklands will be turned into a "highway". But earlier they advocate turning existing roads into parklands as well.
So not only will PT get around by magic, I guess we will all have to go out and by Persian rugs and hope they are of the magical flying kind that these people clearly use as a mode of transport for them selves.
H.
the Park Lands are included on State, National and World Heritage lists.
World heritage and national heritage listing?
They are complaining that just over a month for the public to bitch and moan is too short a time. Sorry, but imo 36 days is long enough for fringe groups to have their pointless, narrow minded, self centered say on why progress shouldn't occur.
Despite the lack of any identified statutory approval to date, geo-technical testing
commenced soon afterwards - as observed on 24 March:
DPTI therefore has left little doubt that public feedback appears irrelevant to the
Government's prior decision to proceed.
They have a picture of a drilling rig taking soil samples in the parklands.
Apparently that's a sign that the government doesn't care about public consultation.
While it could be a sign that the project is going ahead, it could also be an indication that preparation is taking place in order to allow the project to commence should it be given final approval(or whatever the process is).
Soil testing does not mean that the bulldozers are about to move in like this fringe group tries to imply.
Several APPA members have been unable to make submissions to DPTI on this proposal.
There have been persistent recent reports of attempts to make submissions, which have

The persistence of this problem during the brief consultation window casts further doubt on
the nature of the Government's "consultation"
I had a good chuckle at this bit.
They would have us believe that the government is filtering out their individual submissions.
I'm sure there's unmarked vans parked in their streets as well for days on end with no sign of activity and black helicopters flying over their houses late at night as well. Maybe they are being followed on a daily basis by "government agent" type looking men?

Misleading material in Consultation
Materials distributed from 25 February have given a false impression to the public about the
nature of the proposed roadway through Rymill Park.
This is where I stopped reading.
Accusing others of providing false and misleading information, when you your self are guilty of that....wow.
