Fair enough, but the story was talking about the northern part of King William Street, specifically Currie and Grenfell Streets.abc wrote: ↑Mon Sep 02, 2024 11:33 pmno you're wrongNorman wrote: ↑Mon Sep 02, 2024 10:54 pmSo many errors with the story, does this paper even do basic fact checking?
Firstly, the right turns along King William Street were banned in 2007 under the Rann government, not the Marshall government.
Secondly, the is a second hook turn on Currie Street turning onto King William Street.
Personally, I think it's not a necessity for Adelaide. Melbourne's streets are narrower and trams run in more streets, making them essential for getting around the city. In Adelaide we have plenty of alternatives that can be used to turn right.
I actually live in the CBD and right turns were indeed banned during the time I've been here as when I first arrived in 2014 I could turn right from Sturt into KW, now I cannot.
