Legislative Council Fifty-First Parliament, Second Session (51-2) 51 2 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Urban Land Supply URBAN LAND SUPPLY The Hon. SANDRA KANCK Legislative Council URBAN LAND SUPPLY The Hon. SANDRA KANCK (14:57): I have a supplementary question. Can the minister explain how he will make attractive to residents the prospect of having up to 18 freight trains a day going past, some of which are up to two kilometres in length? The Hon. P. HOLLOWAY Legislative Council Minister for Police, Minister for Mineral Resources Development, Minister for Urban Development and Planning URBAN LAND SUPPLY The Hon. P. HOLLOWAY (Minister for Police, Minister for Mineral Resources Development, Minister for Urban Development and Planning) (14:58): We will choose to build most of our transit-oriented developments on passenger railway line corridors. The fact is that Adelaide has a very good spine or a radial system of rail. Most of that rail system goes past industrial areas. Because it is a diesel system, people have tended to live away from those particular areas. If one looks at the Noarlunga and Port Adelaide lines and the tram line, those major corridors do not have heavy freight trains; so they obviously make ideal places for people to live. Once the trains are electrified they will be much more attractive.
