It would be far easier/cheaper to take all of the houses on the other side (and a couple of businesses). Most of them are old places sitting on huge blocks of up to 40-50m in length and from what I can see in Google, they are mostly undivided.

Motorists will be able to travel from the southern suburbs to the outskirts of the Adelaide CBD without stopping at traffic lights following the construction of an overpass connecting the Torrens to Darlington motorway directly to Anzac Highway.
Detailed designs jointly released by the federal and state governments reveal plans to transform the intersection of Anzac Highway and South Road in a major development that will alleviate pressure on other key routes and accommodate future growth.

The project milestone comes weeks after residents of 110 homes at Glandore were notified their properties would be compulsorily acquired, and shows exactly how the land will be used.

The two three-lane southern tunnels will surface in that area at the “northern portal”, near where the Glenelg tramline overpass crosses South Road.

In order to access the city, those travelling north through the tunnel will exit onto an elevated ramp and overpass, which will connect the motorway to Anzac Highway without the need to stop.

The ramp will stretch about 400 metres onto Anzac Highway before it lowers to meet the ground. No property acquisition along the highway will be required to build the structure.

Northbound traffic on the existing South Road, including motorists who have come from Cross Road, will be able to merge onto the motorway using a ramp just south of Anzac Highway.

Federal Urban Infrastructure Minister Paul Fletcher said the project, part of the $9.9 billion final stage of the North-South Corridor, will alleviate congestion across Adelaide and move people and freight faster.

“The T2D is the final piece of one of the most significant projects in the state’s history and will not only dramatically reduce travel times for people going north and south, but will also make it much quicker and safer for the thousands of motorists travelling into the city,” he said.

They say that no property acquisitions along ANZAC Hwy will be needed. It will be interesting to see how they fit 3 lanes each way on ANZAC Hwy, and the new bridge into the existing corridor.

That bridge to Anzac Highway the CBD doesn't need to be there because I thought the main purpose of the freeway was for freight and moving it along the corridor. This bridge will only further encourage the car commute to the city.
