South Road was once the gateway to Adelaide’s car industry, filtering hundreds of manufacturing workers into a sprawling factory in the southern suburbs.
But the remnants of that major employment site, which started as a Chrysler factory and was later taken over by Mitsubishi until the latter closed its doors in 2008, are now hard to find.
The factory was repurposed into a business precinct in the 2010s, and the last traces of the site have been demolished to make way for SA’s largest-ever infrastructure project — the Torrens to Darlington (T2D).
