Mr Marshall was asked on Tuesday\u2019s FIVEAA breakfast show about NSW\u2019s decision to limit passenger numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe\u2019re running our own race in South Australia,\u201d Mr Marshall said. \u201cThey can make their decisions based on their new cases, the information that their epidemiologists have got, and we\u2019ll make our decisions in South Australia on our situation.<\/p>
\u201cPublic transport, road transport, schools and workplaces have always been exempt from the restrictions and for good reasons – you can\u2019t just basically stop your entire economy from working and in South Australia we do have low cases. But we are still concerned about it and that\u2019s why we\u2019ve asked the AHPPC (Australian Health Protection Principal Committee) to do some work. They did have a meeting on it last week. I think they\u2019ll probably bring back their recommendations on Friday this week\u2026\u201d<\/p>
\u201cPeople should be exercising caution. Some people have started going into work early, some people are going in late and making sure where possible you can have distancing between people. And if they\u2019re feeling uncomfortable get on the next train or get on the train after that\u2026\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
In NSW a maximum of 12 people are allowed on buses, while only 32 passengers are allowed on each train carriage and ferries can only carry 45 commuters at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThey\u2019ve got to run their race,\u201d Mr Marshall told David & Will. \u201cI think we are way further down the track compared to NSW. We haven\u2019t had an example of community transmission in our state since 20 March. That\u2019s a long time ago.<\/p>
\u201cThey\u2019re putting restrictions and advice in place based upon the situation they\u2019ve got and we\u2019re doing it here in South Australia on what we\u2019ve got.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
