Summary

A former transport policy guru is sounding the alarm over Adelaide’s new MotoGP track, warning the government may be wildly overestimating its economic returns. Andrew Milazzo’s analysis suggests the project could cost taxpayers nearly $50 million annually after factoring in traffic congestion — far more than the projected $80 million in visitor revenue. The Premier’s office dismisses his findings as flawed, insisting the track will deliver major economic gains and rejecting claims roads will be permanently closed. Construction is set to begin in December, with a $96 million investment and $15 million for parklands, but critics, including the Greens, are demanding a full cost-benefit analysis before taxpayers foot the bill — especially as other urgent needs like healthcare and homelessness loom.
