Departmental media releases

As South Australians start to head off on Christmas leave, Marine Safety Officers are urging those taking to the water to slow down.

Motorists have been given an early gift with the first fully completed section of the newly duplicated Augusta Highway opened in time for the holiday season.

Adelaide Metro will run a modified timetable for tram and bus services over the festive season between 27 and 29 December.

In a major milestone, the State Government has welcomed the final electric train onto the Gawler rail line, signalling the completion of the electrification project.

South Australians have overwhelmingly supported allowing the use of private e-scooters and other personal mobility devices on local roads and paths.

South Australians will enjoy safer and faster journeys between some of the state’s favourite getaway destinations, with all four lanes of the new Main South Road and Victor Harbor Road duplications opening to traffic.

A time capsule found inside a roadside church monument in the Mid North has given a rare insight into the state’s past, with the key piece of Wesleyan Methodist Church history uncovered during the Augusta Highway Duplication planning works.

Major work is set to commence on the 1km rail spur line into the heart of Port Adelaide, improving access to visitors which will help breathe new life into the port.

Passengers can now enjoy a smoother, quieter and cleaner ride as the state’s first 100 per cent electric bus hits the road, servicing routes across Adelaide.

Cricket fans will be able to catch a free ride to Adelaide Oval for all international and Big Bash League (BBL) matches this summer, ensuring everyone can get to the game and have a ball!
