As a female commuter Adelaide metro advised me not to travel at night unless I had good connections e.g. someone to drop me off and pick me up from the stops. This is at any station (unless your a black belt)

Not safe at all.If you have a car with an inbuilt security system/alarm Might I suggest if you live up that way maybe driving to Paradise Interchange and taking one of the non express buses in and out of town if coming from town assuming a park can be found.On Late night shopping night doing that might actually save your life.

May I ask how this question was even brought up in this day and age, living in the demoralised society in which we find ourselves? I as an adult female must accept the reality of the consequences which would occur if I were to travel on a train alone after daylight, precaution is required. It is the responsible thing to do in order to send out an example of clear cognitive thought to the next generation.

What a load of utter rubbish !
Salisbury/Elizabeth/ Gawler no different then any other part of town !!
!nner city has some issues as is a gathering place .
But Adelaide as a whole ,is generally a safe City .
Most issues caused by our indigenous population . Especially at night around the City and train stations as they're on their way hime at all times of night .

Nope! I wouldn't dare you to go there if we were playing a game of Truth or Dare! It's so dangerous!
But that's not all. After 8pm, things start to get real. Gangs, thugs and people armed with high-weapons come and hang out there. If they see you in one instant split of a second, you're pretty much going to get yourself.
And personally, I would not recommend coming here alone, as you are making yourself an easy target towards the other bad people who hang out there. The simplest form of saying this, is do not go there after 8pm!!

Nope! I wouldn't dare you to do it if we were playing a game of Truth or Dare! It's just too dangerous for ANY ONE (male or female) to be at the Salisbury Train Station at night. Usually, it is more safer to be there by about 8:00pm - after that, things start to get real. Thugs, gangs and dangerous people armed come to hang out there. If they see you, your pretty much going to get yourself killed. The simplest form of this answer is, don't go after 8pm!

I can relate as I used to live up that way.On Friday Nights I got my daddy to pick me up from the city when It was late night shopping night or I would use Park and Ride at Paradise Interchange in conjunction with the Bus depending on my circumstances in the evenings.not sure how much has changed in the last decade or so but I personally would not chance it in this day and age safety wise.

Whilst the council did look to provide camera surveillance in the train station as well as the neighbouring hotel, I would definitely not walk around that area being a female & I worked opposite the train station for 5 years.

It is not safe. However, if you have to transit through there at all, try and make the change over times as close as possible. Sit on a waiting bus (even if it's not yours - tell the driver why, they will generally let you on and close the doors) and stay in lit areas under the camera surveillance.
