'''Tea Tree Plaza Interchange''' (previously known as '''Modbury Interchange''') is a [[Transport interchange|bus interchange]] operated by [[Adelaide Metro]] in [[Modbury, South Australia]] as part of the [[O-Bahn Busway]]. It is a central public transport hub for the north eastern suburbs of [[Adelaide]].

==History==
Tea Tree Plaza Interchange was built as the terminating station of Stage 2 of the [[O-Bahn Busway]] from [[Paradise Interchange]].<ref>Busway Information, Paper One: Background History of the Northeast Corridor Transportation Proposals, South Australian Department of Transport 1983</ref><ref>O-Bahn Busway Information (Brochure). South Australian Department of Transport 1987</ref> It was opened on 20 August 1989 by [[Premier of South Australia|Premier]] [[John Bannon]].<ref>"Thousands at opening of $104m busway" ''[[Adelaide Advertiser]]'' 21 August 1989 page 2</ref><ref>Northeast Busway (Brochure), [[State Transport Authority (South Australia)|State Transport Authority]] 1990</ref><ref>[http://infrastructure.sa.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0005/157487/OBAHN_FACT_SHEET_-_BACKGROUND_FINAL.pdf O-Bahn City Access Project Background] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160312060236/http://infrastructure.sa.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0005/157487/OBAHN_FACT_SHEET_-_BACKGROUND_FINAL.pdf |date=12 March 2016 }} [[Department of Planning, Transport & Infrastructure]] February 2015</ref> Originally named Modbury Interchange, it was renamed Tea Tree Plaza Interchange on 12 September 1997.

==2013 redevelopments==
On 24 February 2013, Premier [[Jay Weatherill]] announced a $17 million upgrade of facilities along the [[O-Bahn Busway]], which included increased bicycle storage, real-time information screens and additional seating.<ref>{{cite web|title=News Release - Safe and Secure Parking for O-Bahn commuters at Tea Tree Plaza|url=http://www.infrastructure.sa.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0006/92814/ttp_upgrade.pdf|publisher=Department of the Premier and Cabinet, South Australia|access-date=4 June 2023|archive-date=24 April 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130424144821/http://infrastructure.sa.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0006/92814/ttp_upgrade.pdf|url-status=dead}}</ref>  As part of the upgrade, a $14 million multiple level carpark was built on the north-west corner of the Tea Tree Gully campus of [[TAFE South Australia|TAFE SA]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Site plan for proposed public commuter carpark at Tea Tree Plaza Interchange|url=http://www.infrastructure.sa.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0009/88515/Aerial_Image_Proposed_CP_location.pdf|publisher=Department of Transport, Energy and Infrastructure, South Australia|access-date=4 June 2023|archive-date=12 March 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160312055824/http://www.infrastructure.sa.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0009/88515/Aerial_Image_Proposed_CP_location.pdf|url-status=live}}</ref> The carpark provides 700 spaces, 300 more than was previously available. The entrance to the carpark utilises the access road from Smart Road that was previously only used by buses entering the busway. The development is expected to meet consumer demand at the interchange until 2021. The carpark opened on 13 January 2014. However, some have criticised the move to charge non-[[MetroCARD (Adelaide)|MetroCARD]] holders $10, whereas those whose who have a metrocard are only charged $2.<ref>{{cite web|last=Abbracciavento|first=Daniela|title=End of Modbury Interchange parking pain with the opening of a multi-storey carpark off Smart Road|url=http://www.adelaidenow.com.au/messenger/north-northeast/end-to-modbury-interchange-parking-pain-with-the-opening-of-a-multistorey-carpark-off-smart-rd/story-fni9ll1r-1226797295261|publisher=Adelaide Now|access-date=4 June 2023|archive-date=15 February 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140215072557/http://www.adelaidenow.com.au/messenger/north-northeast/end-to-modbury-interchange-parking-pain-with-the-opening-of-a-multistorey-carpark-off-smart-rd/story-fni9ll1r-1226797295261|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>[https://www.busnews.com.au/industry-news/1401/park’n’ride-ready Park & Ride Ready] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230317192839/https://www.busnews.com.au/industry-news/1401/park%E2%80%99n%E2%80%99ride-ready |date=17 March 2023 }} ''Australasian Bus & Coach'' 13 January 2014</ref><ref>[https://www.adelaidemetro.com.au/Using-Adelaide-Metro/Park-n-Ride/Tea-Tree-Plaza-Interchange-Park-n-Ride Tea Tree Plaza Interchange Park & Ride] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210612224354/https://adelaidemetro.com.au/Using-Adelaide-Metro/Park-n-Ride/Tea-Tree-Plaza-Interchange-Park-n-Ride |date=12 June 2021 }} Adelaide Metro</ref>
