SIMMS Legislative Council Hills Parking In reply to the Hon. R.A. SIMMS (22 September 2021). The Hon. R.I. LUCAS Legislative Council Hills Parking The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer): The Minister for Infrastructure and Transport advised: The possibility of using the land for a park-and-ride facility was not considered to be a viable option due to its distance from existing public transport services. The land is located approximately 300 metres from stop 46 on Mount Barker Road, which is the main route for services to the city. Any redirection of the bus services that use Mount Barker Road to access the parcel of land would be inefficient for existing passengers adding time and cost for these services. As part of the Transport Network Planning Studies Program, the Department for Infrastructure and Transport is investigating options for expanded car parking for bus commuters in the Adelaide Hills.
