SITE TOUR – TRAM GRADE SEPARATION PROJECT

EVENT OVERVIEW

Join the RTSA and PWI for an exclusive joint technical site tour hosted and guided by Winnie Hoare, Construction Manager at McConnell Dowell.

This site tour will explore the Tram Grade Separation Project Alliance’s work, where they have successfully removed three level crossings where the Glenelg tram line crosses Marion Road and Cross Road in Plympton, and Morphett Road in Morphettville.
