EOI period has concluded.
The River Torrens has been and continues to be populated by Popeye, Adelaide Paddleboats and Adelaide Gondola. In addition to this commercial activity the River is used seven days a week for Recreational Rowing as well as Regattas. It also hosts regular model power boat races.
In 2015 Council undertook a capacity assessment of the River determining capacity for additional commercial activity at certain times of the week.
In Bonython Park, the river is currently unused.
We are seeking Expressions of Interest (EOI) to activate the River Torrens / Karrawirra Parri between Jolley’s Boat House and the Weir and including Bonython Park with recreational water based activities.
Interested parties are invited to submit an EOI to the City of Adelaide in accordance with the EOI Information Pack for River Torrens business proposals between the Frome Road Bridge and the Torrens Weir together with the section of river running adjacent to Bonython Park / Tulya Wardli (Park 27). Please refer to the maps in the Image Gallery.
The EOI process is open to:
