Superloop Adelaide 500

In reply to the Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (26 February 2019).

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment): I have been advised:

1. The 3 per cent increase in ticket sales is derived from there having been 107,048 general public and corporate ticket sales processed through the authorised ticketing agency compared to the same time last year. These tickets do not include sponsor and stakeholder allocated tickets, and is a mix of single day passes, and multiple day passes (i.e. attending more than one session).

2. As part of the 2018-19 state budget the government tasked the South Australian Tourism Commission (SATC) to reduce the total build time of the Superloop Adelaide 500 infrastructure by one week. The SATC allocated $100,000 to meet this requirement.

3. The amount of funding allocated to the VIP suite for government guests this year was $139,111.55. In comparison, 2018 funding to the VIP suite for government guests was $148,666.21. Please note that these figures do not include construction costs, security and staff costs.

4. The SATC sought expert advice on the potential to reduce the total build time and at what cost. The SATC's independent engineers, iEDM, subsequently advised that given the constraints around the size of the worksite and workers occupational health and safety that a maximum reduction of one week was achievable without compromising worker safety. After consideration of how this would be achieved, iEDM subsequently advised that the cost for a one-week reduction in total build and dismantle time would be approximately $100,000.
