Notes on Adelaide podcast: The cars that ate Adelaide
In this week’s episode, we explore how Adelaide moved from having the nation’s best tram network to being more heavily reliant on cars than most other Australian cities. What does this mean for Adelaide’s future and why is a new lobby group seeking to transform the way we get around our city and state?
Transport historian and veteran public transport planner Tom Wilson joins us, along with UniSA researcher Jennifer Bonham – together they want to see a revolution in South Australian transport policy.
Tom Wilson’s definitive history of Adelaide’s public transport is published by Wakefield Press.
Jennifer Bonham is part of a new lobby group seeking to transform transport policy in Adelaide.
