Show Notes

A monumental milestone in South Australias infrastructure: the first massive cutterhead for the Torrens to Darlington project is lowered into place, marking the start of the final stretch of the North-South Corridor motorway. This $15.4 billion project, involving three tunnel boring machines, will carve out twin tunnels, connecting Gawler to Old Noarlunga without a single traffic light. The project, despite a budget increase and home demolitions, promises to reduce peak-hour drives by 30-40 minutes and create 5,500 jobs, boosting the local economy.
