So much tram training/testing going on at lunchtime today - it looked like they were primarily focussing on scenarios where two trams arrived at the KWS/NT junction at the same time from different directions. It feels like the opening of the line is getting closer!

Thanks Llessur2002 - some great pics! I'm trying to remain optimistic like almost everybody else on here, but who in DPTI thought it would be remotely acceptable for the poles to lean in like they are, even just a bit - despite them being safe and all that. It's not good enough for our premier street and will need to be rectified at some point. Perhaps we should all start applying pressure - emails, tweets, etc. to the appropriate authorities?

Makes me feel proud seeing trams in our CBD - you could almost mistake Adelaide for a modern progressive city

No offence mate but Adelaide will be a progressive city when it gets something like the MRT (Singapore) or MTR (Hong Kong). So let's look with some vision 20 or 30 years down the track and start planning now. And when I mean an underground, I mean no piddly city loop! As for trams...they may be nice but they're not the be all end all of PT.
Cheers

I hope they'll have them open by the time the RAS starts!
