bus stops have

formed part of

the upgrades

in preparation

for the opening

of Adelaide’s

O-Bahn tunnel

Consultation has been

undertaken with passengers

with accessibility needs and city

businesses and residents will

receive further information ahead

of the changes. The project is

expected to be completed by the

end of this year.

In related news, expressions

of interest have now been taken

for more than $200 million of

South Australian public transport

projects including the $174.

million Oaklands Crossing

upgrade. These projects include

the $15 million upgrade of

existing park and ride facilities,

which will create an extra 300

car parks at the Tea Tree Plaza

O-Bahn interchange and another

200 at Klemzig, as announced in

June’s State Budget.

Both facilities will be fully

compliant with disability-access

standards, and will have full

digital CCTV coverage and

dedicated lighting and pathways

to the platforms. Removing

the level crossing will reduce

congestion for vehicle traffi c

held up by the boom gates,

which are lowered for

approximately a quarter of the

time during peak periods.

“Removing the Oaklands

Park level crossing will reduce

delays for the 42,000 vehicles

which travel through this level

crossing each weekday while

also improving train services

for the 15,000 passengers who

use the Seaford line each day,”

Mullighan says.

The project will also involve

improvements to the bus and

train interchange, as well as better

access to the Marion precinct.

The new car park spaces

will be in addition to the 700

already located near Tea Tree

Plaza Interchange and the

230 at Klemzig Interchange.

Construction of the park and ride

upgrades is set to start in 2018.
