Talk:Metropolitan Adelaide Transport Study

message: Whilst I am glad that some images have been added to the article, they lack context for anyone who is not intimately familiar with the layout of Adelaide (I am, and still find it very difficult to work out what area they are representing). What the article needs is an overall map of the proposed highways. If a detailed map of the total proposed network could be found, or if there are enough images from which to reconstruct the whole plan, I'd happily whip up a graphic when I get some time. 
Also, while we're on the subject of the images, what's their fair use status? It looks like they've been photographed off a microfiche screen. Are we allowed to use these images?--Yeti Hunter (talk) 08:43, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I reckon they would be fair use because they are not freely replaceable, enhance the article significantly, etc. He will probably get harassed by a bot soon enough for it though Muzzamo (talk) 09:27, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

message: Suggest the reference to the backwater comment be removed. The offending paragraph is offering new analysis of historical events as compared to contemporary issues, and is thus original research. It also has a whiff of anti-Adelaide (or perhaps pro-development) POV about it. --Yeti Hunter (talk) 05:17, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

message: "By the 1980s, road reserves and land gazetted for future use in MATS projects had been progressively sold off by various governments" - is that true? I thought the selloff wasn't until the project was formaly terminated by the Bannon Government in 1983. e.g. this ref - "In 1970 the MATS plan was suspended and finally abandoned in 1983. For all this time however, Brompton and Bowden wavered..." Peter Ballard (talk) 03:13, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Selloff 

message: The article is equivocal about the outcomes of the MATS plan. The introduction says flatly, "Ultimately none of the plan's recommendations were brought to fruition".  However, the article goes on to say that the existing Southern Expressway, Port River Expressway and O-Bahn are all derived from, or descended from, elements of the plan.  Shouldn't the summing up in the introduction be a little less absolute in dismissing the legacy of the MATS plan?  Peter Bell (talk) 03:19, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
