We need some new developments out in the north desperately.
A statistician at yesterday's meeting to discuss the Holden closure reported that unemployment in the Elizabeth area is 32%.
That's just scary. Housing developments continue to pop up, which is a start but where are the jobs when that finishes? Where are the jobs for those that are meant to live in those houses?
This is going to be a massive problem in very short time.

Without being a smartarse, I'm concerned at what it's going to do to the crime rate in the northern suburbs once the jobs do go.

So many people have been so used to of the healthy pay packet that a Holden's income does provide, there simply wont be enough jobs in the state for 75% of them to find immediate employment.

Is that slightly misleading in that alot of people who could afford to have moved out further to developments like blakes crossing, Munno para west, Penfield eyre etc etc

shit stretch of a major arterial that part. Yes should have been done years ago. When i was in adelaide i would purposely avoid it . Its the rail crossing that stuffs it up there

Good to see the government is spending money to improve it

I believe they maybe looking at another company moving in. Obviously this is all rumour but that will be the obvious idea beforr they bulldozer it.

Still unemployment will and has started to go gang buster in the Northern suburbs.

Its not like we could use that money for health or education. I mean its not like we are closing hospitals and our public schools are a disgrace. I think this motor sport par tis really need to ensure that motor and sport can come together at the park in Tailem.

It's a very good point about the crime rates in Elizabeth once Holden packs up. Lived in Perth for 3 years and loved it but the theft, robbery and other crimes that come with that are ridicously out of control due to the mining $!

The crime rate in Elizabeth will grow but the surrounding suburbs with a little bit of coin in Mawson lakes and Golden Grove will go through the roof.

Until about a month ago, I hadn't been up that stretch of South Road in a couple of years - I'd forgotten how bad it is. Had to drive through it six times recently and it was the WORST. Can't believe it hasn't been fixed before now. Traffic banked up for miles no matter what time of day it is.

About time we got toll roads here, we are so far behind the rest of the country it isnt funny

Does anyone remember the MATS Plan?

It would've been expensive, but it would have been well worth it, even if only 2/3 of it was put in place.

Probably would have solved some of our current traffic problems though.....
