Title
Flooded street, suburban Adelaide 1917
Description
Adelaide and South Australia as a whole endured an extremely wet winter in 1917. Streets in the city and many suburbs were inundated because of poor drainage especially in areas near the River Torrens. Roads and some houses in low lying suburbs such as Fulham, Henley Beach and Grange were particularly affected. Solutions canvassed included a controversial proposal to construct a channel to the sea through the sandhills.
