Flinders U puts Tonsley on the map
The developments keep coming at the Tonsley Innovation District, in Adelaide’s south, where the Mitsubishi factory used to be. Flinders U is piling into high-end industrial research there for a couple of years and last week Labor promised the university $20m of the $50m it needs for its Australian Centre for Innovative Manufacturing. There is also $120m to extend a rail line there.And now there is talk of a new hotel on site, to accommodate people doing business with Flinders U, plus TAFE and various industry investors in the site.
