The South Australian Government has revealed plans to privatise the operation of Adelaide's train and tram services.
It says it will still own and control "rail assets", including trains, trams, tracks and stations, and will continue to set the fare price for travel.
Transport Minister Stephan Knoll said Adelaide's public transport network was underperforming, with one of the lowest patronage levels in the country.
He said the new model would deliver more efficient services.
"We know that public transport patronage growth has stalled, and customers want a better level of services than is currently provided — and the Marshall Government agrees with our customers."
Bus services were privatised in the year 2000, by then Liberal premier John Olsen.
Mr Knoll said service frequency would be guaranteed and service standards would increase under the new model.
"We will be able to deliver more efficient services so we can reinvest back into the network to provide better services," he said.

Victoria are always prone to Blackout over summer. You recall that SA just had a summer with some of the hottest days on record and the lights stayed on expect for local failures on equipment. Which is actually one of the biggest concerns in SA in that old crap shitting itself.Jimmy_041 wrote:Good luck SA if DPRV are now looking at black outs over summer

My only objection to the proposal to revise the application of land tax is applying it retrospectively, apart from perhaps being concerned about how rapidly the tax rises with increasing holdings. The big investors can probably cope with the restrospectivity, or a significantly higher total rate, but I'm concerned about those whose major provision for their retirement has been property investment accumulated over many years under the old rules. One I know was a technician doing regional geographical survey work in the SA public service who had poured everything he had into that as his superannuation plan.
The other thing that irritates me is the dishonesty implicit in coming up with the idea after the election. It smacks of another piece of dishonesty that is rife - disguised Land Tax on the primary residence disguised as "supply charges" - charges that vary with the value of the property are taxes not "supply charges".
