This site showcases the correspondence between May 2024 and April 2026 among the following stakeholders. Each stakeholder has its own dedicated page. We hope that all parties can collaborate effectively to develop optimal solutions for safe drop-off and pick-up locations for the public and rideshare drivers.
The Adelaide City Council
MPs in the South Australian Labor government, currently led by Premier Peter Malinauskas
MPs in the South Australian Liberal opposition, currently led by David Speirs
Other councils that could implement improvements for rideshare drivers
Rideshare drivers who have shared comments and stories about the main pain points for picking up and dropping off passengers in Adelaide
Media outlets interested in educating the public on how to use rideshare services so that drivers don't get fined for just doing their jobs during drop-offs and pickups
For confidentiality reasons, most names of individuals have been removed, but for transparency, the actual correspondence is displayed.
19 May 2024:
The starting point is the following letter sent to two Adelaide City Councillors, Premier@sa.gov.au, and the MPs responsible for transport: Minister.Koutsantonis@sa.gov.au and hartley@parliament.sa.gov.au
I met you last week at the Public hearing on Tuesday, 14 May, from 5.30pm to 6.30pm at the Adelaide Town Hall.
I have completed the survey, and my submission relating to “ongoing difficulties that rideshare drivers face within the Adelaide CBD every day and night” that I included in the survey, is attached.
I have included members of the state government to ensure everyone is on the same page and can collaborate to implement changes that help rideshare drivers operate more safely and legally as they do their job.
Kind regards
