Today  

An investigation by SKM for the Department for Planning, Transport and Infrastructure has calculated additional productivity based benefits associated with the project. The investigation found that there was a close correlation between the tram extension to the City West Precinct just west of the Morphett Street Bridge, and the density of employment along the tram route. Evidence from around the world suggests that increases in employment densities in inner cities, referred to as agglomeration, results in increased productivity due from the closer interaction between businesses. In the case of the tram extension, the SKM work provided an indicative estimate of these productivity benefits being at least $ 85 million (net present value).

Integrated  Transport  and  Land  Use  Plan  %  ITLUP identifies significant investment overall in:

•  Adelaide’s North-South Corridor and Road Network •  Modernising and Expanding Public Transport •  Upgrading Regional Transport Infrastructure •  Encouraging Active Travel Choices and Sustainability

Integrated  Transport  and  Land  Use  Plan  % Modernising and Expanding Public Transport includes:

•  Completing the electrification of the north-south backbone of Adelaide’s public transport system, new trains, an underground rail link in the CBD, and the relocation of the Keswick passenger terminal into Adelaide Railway Station

•  Bringing back the trams to Adelaide by creating the AdeLINK network, including a loop in the CBD (CityLINK), to the northwest (PortLINK), to the west (WestLINK), to the south (UnleyLINK), to the east (EastLINK), and to the north (ProspectLINK)

•  Redesigning and modernising the bus network, including better access into the CBD for the O-Bahn, bus interchanges and ‘Super Stops’, bus priority and more new buses
