'''Greenhill Road''' is a major road in [[Adelaide]], [[South Australia]], that provides a vital transport artery for those living in the eastern and hills suburbs. In Adelaide's early days, trams used to run up and down the road. A resident of [[Burnside, South Australia|Burnside]] can usually expect to take 15 minutes to reach the [[Central business district|CBD]] in peak times, and around ten minutes in others. |
