Project Information

Charles Street, between Rundle Mall and North Terrace, has been identified by the City of Adelaide as a key laneway in the Rundle Mall precinct requiring a full streetscape upgrade to replace aged assets, improve pedestrian safety, enhance the public realm and improve the retail experience for customers and retailers. Due to its proximity to the cultural precinct on North Terrace and internal linkages with other arcades, Charles Street offers a significant opportunity to reinvigorate the northeastern portion of the Rundle Mall Precinct.

The vision for Charles Street is to create a high-quality, safe and un-cluttered street, that complements a busy shopping precinct. In order to support a pedestrian friendly environment with alfresco dining, cafes and retail shops, the City of Adelaide is proposing to close the street to vehicular traffic. 


Update

On 26 March Council approved in accordance with Section 32 of the Road Traffic Act 1961, the closure of the road known as Charles Street, Adelaide (‘the Road’), between Rundle Mall and North Terrace to all motor vehicles other than the exempted vehicles. Minutes of the meeting can be found here.  

A summary of the consultation approach and the results of consultation can be found here

 

What happens next?

Traffic control devices (signs & line marking) will be installed to give effect to the closure.
