Summary
South Australia’s $15.4 billion Torrens to Darlington project is on track despite global supply chain risks, says Transport Minister Jon Whelan — even as an Auditor-General’s report warns a 1% budget overrun could cost taxpayers $154 million. The department is tightening risk reporting and working with unions, including clarifying that while workers can choose their union, the main agreement is with AWU — not CFMEU — and no plans exist to shut down the O-Bahn for MotoGP construction. With asphalt targeted for May and night-time roadwork planned to minimize disruption, officials are racing to balance massive infrastructure progress with community events like the Fringe Festival and smooth business operations around parklands.
