Is South Australia just getting started? SHARE THIS ARTICLE
Federal budget infrastructure spending will build on the boom that’s already taking place across the South Australian residential marketplace, according to a real estate network’s GM.
James Trimble is the general manager at Raine & Horne South Australia and he said the state is already benefiting from infrastructure development, but the promise of further funding particularly for better roads will make property demand even greater.
“There’s a saying that ‘build it and they will come’, a notion supporting the government’s $2.6 billion funding for the North-South Corridor – Darlington to Anzac Highway and other projects such as $148 million for the Augusta Highway Duplication Stage 2,” he said.

Torrens to Darlington project creating more jobs
The next 157 jobs associated with the biggest infrastructure project in South Australia’s history will start to roll out in the next few months as $85 million worth of early enabling works get underway.
As part of the North-South Corridor upgrade, enabling works on the Torrens to Darlington (T2D) project include relocations for water, electricity, gas and telecommunications services for the southern section of the project and are a required precursor to construction of the Hybrid+ design.
Federal Minister for Communications, Urban Infrastructure, Cities and the Arts, the Hon Paul Fletcher MP, said getting on with these early works now will ensure the project stays on track for main construction of the southern tunnel to start in 2023.
