Tea Tree Plaza Car Parking

Ms BEDFORD (Florey) (15:25): Supplementary question to the Minister for Infrastructure and Transport: does the minister know how many Datacom employees' car parks will be lost during the construction process of the long overdue O-Bahn park-and-ride at Tea Tree Plaza?

The DEPUTY SPEAKER: Minister, before I call you, I must apologise. We had lost the clock on your previous answer so continue now.

The Hon. C.L. WINGARD (Gibson—Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing) (15:25): No problems. Thank you for that, sir. I can perhaps wrap both up into the next answer because I was pointing out the park-and-rides we are building at Golden Grove and we are very happy about that. Of course, we are improving the road there as well with stage 3 of the Golden Grove Road upgrade project—just doing the things that we need to do for the people of the north-east, the really important projects.

I have mentioned the Golden Grove park-and-ride and the Tea Tree Plaza park-and-ride, which goes with the Paradise park-and-ride. You can see the journey we are going on there with the people of the north-east and we are really excited to be building what matters for the people of that region. As for the Datacom people, that is the forecast site for the new Tea Tree Plaza park-and-ride. Again, the parks that we are putting in are on top of the parks that are already there for the Datacom people who use that space.

I will get the detail for the member for Florey and get back to her with the exact number of car parks that will be impacted during the build and how that will go forward. But, again, at the end of the day, having those extra car parks with the growth of the Tea Tree Plaza park-and-ride and the Golden Grove park-and-ride will be a massive win, and I do congratulate the members for King and Newland on their great advocacy for these two wonderful projects for the people of South Australia.

The DEPUTY SPEAKER: A further supplementary, member for Florey.
