Re: July / September 2009 Service Changes

The only interchange ppl could get confused at is TTP - and there are clearly marked stops on either side of the interchange. At Marion and GGV buses only go one way, so there's no problem.

Re: July / September 2009 Service Changes

I don't have a problem with renumbering stuff in the same contract area, the biggest problem is the Outer North East contract area having routes within North-South and East-West which are separate contract areas. But yeah, I'd doubt they will do anything major until after the election. What makes i...

As much as I agree with some of your points lowrider, we shouldnt discourage someone from having a go. You don't need to have fantastic background to come up with a good idea - his ideas may not be perfect but may have some good points which could be adapted into a decent change. There are gunzels p...

Re: Less people using Adelaide's public transport

MPM: hundreds of thousands of dollars are spent creating and printing timetables so that passengers can easily access the information that you insinuate is being kept away from them. they can also find this information onine. ignorance is no excuse.

Re: [Jun 09] AdMet Observations

Thanks Shazam for pointing that out-however it appears that there is more than 1472-as 1478 was on TV as a backdrop for Premier Rann last week when he made the announcement of the 20 additional buses coming into services plus 117 additional services from the 20th July.Maybe 1473-1477 are around the...

Re: [Jun 09] AdMet Observations

not sure how they'll get to 1499 if there are only 80 in the order... unless they tack the numbers on from the rigid/artic order of 160 that's coming up next. Maybe there is more than 80 in the current order.So far there have been 94 new Scania K230UB Euro V buses delivered and in service;- Transit...

Re: July / September 2009 Service Changes

i heard a rumour that there will be no timetables printed, they will only be updated on the adelaide metro website ... which would make sense if they have major changes planned for september... will save some cash.

I dont know if it was so much the contractors. The word on the street is that to cut costs (and subsequently corners too) TA/DTEI provided no tamping equipment, nor the funds for it. The temporary track, which has a limit of 25kph, looks something like the Gawler line on a hot day. Its possible som...
