  • General Notes on the Stuart Highway
    CHALLENGING TERRAIN NO MATCH FOR ENGINEERING INGENUITY Page 1 of 8 The concept and design of the Stuart Highway began in 1870 by the South Australian Government. Between 1911 and 1978 the Commonwealth and various state government departments utilised in house resources and consultants to continue development. The Northern Territory Government took responsibility for construction from 1978. The highway began in 1870 as a supply track along the Overland Telegraph and over 130 years later, it is now the Stuart Highway as we know it today. The Stuart Highway North connects Alice Springs with Darwin via numerous small towns and the two major centres of Tennant Creek and Katherine. The explorer John Mc Douall Stuart, on his third attempt, crossed the continent of Australia from Port Augusta to the north coast arriving 20 miles east of the mouth of the Adelaide River on 24 July 1862. Stuart’s Reports spoke highly of the potential of the country that he had traversed and based on Stuart’s advice South Australia had the land to its north excised and on 6 July 1863 the Northern Territory became the responsibility of South Australia14. In 1871 the Overland Telegraph line was constructed linking Port Augusta and the southern states with the recently established settlement of Palmerston. The undersea cable connecting Australia to the world through Java came ashore at Palmerston on Port Darwin. The Overland Telegraph followed the route taken by Stuart for a substantial proportion of its 1765-mile length. The alignment of the telegraph was kept cleared of trees, maintenance and resupply of stores for the telegraphers at the Repeater Stations, meant that traffic along the route was ongoing and “The Overland” became established.

  • Tidal Wave of Construction and 1300 Jobs Heading for South Australia
    Tidal wave of construction and 1300 jobs heading for South Australia 11/10/2020 | Corey Wingard MP | More Jobs | Better Services A tidal wave of major construction is heading for South Australia with works starting on more than $1 billion worth of infrastructure projects within the next six months. The building boom kicks off this month and will support more than 1,300 jobs as the Marshall Government continues to build what matters to South Australians. Major construction begins on two of the biggest regional infrastructure projects ever undertaken in this state - the Port Wakeeld Overpass and Highway Duplication and the Joy Baluch AM Bridge Duplication Project. Showcasing a commitment to improving regional roads, next month shoulder sealing works will also begin on the Tod and Birdseye Highways. In metropolitan Adelaide, major construction works will start by the end of the year on the much anticipated upgrade of the intersection of Goodwood, Springbank and Daws Roads, as well as the Main North, Kings and McIntyre Roads Intersection Upgrade. Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Corey Wingard said these important projects will support our economy and deliver jobs at a time when our state needs it most will support our economy and deliver jobs at a time when our state needs it most. “The economic challenges our state is facing at the moment are unprecedented,” Minister Wingard said. “Getting major works started on infrastructure projects across South Australia will help keep the economy ring as we navigate our way through the COVID-19 pandemic. “Creating jobs is critical to our economic recovery and we’re delivering around 1,315 over the next six months in road infrastructure projects alone.

  • Joint Select Committee on Northern Australia Development- Inquiry
    Submission Number: 59 Date Received: 17/02/2014 Joint Select Committee on Northern Australia Development- Inquiry Outback Way Submission OUTBACK WAY = OPENS NORTHERN AUSTRALIA & CLOSES THE GAP A Summary The Outback Way is included in the Coalition’s Northern Australia Policy which is highlighting a significant vision for Australia’s future. The Outback Way project is not just a road- keeping it open for business addresses some critical policy areas - productivity for a consolidating mining/freight sector, diversifies market access for the cattle industry, indigenous access & equity, and a new adventure self-drive tourism route. With the $66million being spent on the Outback Way from 2014-15- 2016/17, for both upgrading and sealing there will be significant improvements in all sectors throughout, feeding into the development of Northern Australia. MINING The reduced distance between WA & Qld due to the Outback Way will facilitate: Inter linkages between the nation’s two largest mining areas in Queensland and in Western Australia, accounting for over 73% of Australia’s output, saving companies $1million/ shift for emergency equipment replacement and $16,000/mining movement one way. Further infrastructure development is being worked on for West Musgrave mining interests and Metals Ex Wingellina project, as they look to start production - which will add value to the Adelaide to Darwin railway- increasing mining exports out of Darwin. CATTLE INDUSTRY The Outback Way is a critical route for road trains- last year we saw significant cattle movements along the Plenty Highway and Donohue Highway into Qld due to dry conditions and producers adjusting to a decline in live export.

  • South Australia's Road Safety Action Plan 2018
    SOUTH AUSTRALIA’S ROAD SAFETY ACTION PLAN 2018 - 2019 2 Towards Zero Together – Road Safety Action Plan 2018-2019 FROM THE MINISTER In South Australia, over the past few decades, road deaths have reduced by 43 percent and serious injuries have reduced by 57 percent. This is despite a 43 percent increase in licensed drivers and riders and a 34 percent increase in the number of registered vehicles. Tragically, road deaths increased from a record low of 86 in 2016 to 101 people killed on South Australian roads in 2017. An unacceptably high increase in motorcycle rider fatalities saw 24 riders unnecessarily killed on our roads in 2017, the highest number seen for this group since 1993. A further 569 people were seriously injured in 2017. While this is the lowest number of serious injuries recorded in South Australia in any year, it remains too high. I believe we can further reduce road deaths and injuries, towards our ultimate goal of zero. To achieve this, all South Australians need to share this goal and responsibility and support the efforts needed to prevent road trauma continuing in our community. Infrastructure safety improvements that reduce crash severity, greater take up of safer vehicles, reducing vehicle speeds and speeding and reforming certain licensing laws offer promising potential to achieve greater reductions in fatalities and serious injuries. A continuing focus on behaviour change is also required as we continue to see many people dying on our roads as a consequence of drink or drug driving, driving tired, unfit, distracted, or not wearing a seatbelt.
