    CONSULTATION UPDATES

    Newlands Lane

    We heard that the laneway is a well-used and important link between Melbourne Street and Finnis Street, and a valuable connection between North Adelaide and the Parklands. Council has decided based on the feedback received to keep the laneway open.

    The project team will continue to investigate the laneway; with a re-design to be undertaken to consider pedestrian safety lighting with a renewed footpath to improve accessibility. The stormwater pipe under Newlands Lane will remain and continue to manage the Council's Stormwater system in this precinct. For more information click here.

    Pitt Street Streetscape Upgrade

    This upgrade aims to provide a key city pedestrian connection, promote economic vitality, enhance the street's unique character and provide opportunities for street activation such as outdoor dining.

    Construction is anticipated to commence late 2023, and will take 6-10 months to complete. For more details and to keep up to date click here.

    Kingston Terrace (Jerningham to Francis Street) Stormwater and Streetscape Improvements

    Feedback was carefully considered against budget, renewal requirements and asset condition, and option number 2 has been identified as the best solution.

    The project will move to detailed design this financial year, with construction scheduled for the 2024/25 financial year. Further information can be found here.

    Climate Action Plan

    In May 2023, Council endorsed the Climate Action Plan 2022-25, following the conversations we had with you and the suggestions we received. The Climate Action Plan 2022-25 is now available to download at Carbon Neutral Adelaide. The plan documents our ongoing efforts in four themes: an electrified city, a mobile population, a green and resilient community, and a leading Council.

    The 2020/21 Community Emissions Inventories are now available at Tracking city carbon emissions. We can now be proud that city-wide emissions have been decreasing, while the city itself has been growing. Between the 2007 and 2022 financial years our residential population grew by 41% and Gross Regional Product increased by 58%. Over this time, greenhouse gas emissions decreased by 26%.

    CONSULTATION UPDATES

    2024 Adelaide Fringe - Temporary closure of Rundle Road

    Following consideration of the outcomes of the community consultation, Adelaide Fringe, The Garden of Unearthly Delights and Gluttony events have withdrawn their application to close Rundle Road for the 2024 Adelaide Fringe.

    The Adelaide Fringe, The Garden of Unearthly Delights and Gluttony events have acknowledged the public feedback received, and have advised that they plan to work through this feedback with stakeholders before they consider revisiting a potential application in the future.


    Hamilton Place, Adelaide: One Way Traffic Flow

    At its meeting on 27 June Council noted the results of traffic assessments and public consultation for the proposed closure to westbound traffic in Hamilton Place, Adelaide. A decision was made to retain the existing two-way traffic conditions in Hamilton Place.

    As part of the Greener City Streets Program five new trees will be planted and one water sensitive urban design greening area will be installed at the eastern end of Hamilton Place in late 2023.


    National Heritage Management Plan for the Adelaide Park Lands and City Layout

    Following the conclusion of the consultation period on the Draft National Heritage Management Plan for the Adelaide Park Lands and City Layout, Council is in the process of considering the submissions received and appropriate amendments to the Policy. The draft National Heritage Management Plan with recommended changes to the Plan arising from public consultation will be considered by Council in November 2023.


    Sturt Street West Greening

    The Sturt West Greening Project has been put on hold and will not be delivered as part of this year's Business Plan and Budget (BP&B). The Project will be considered in future BP&B’s.

    The reasons for the works not proceeding are as follows:

    • A rise in construction material and labour has exceeded City of Adelaide’s (CoA) expectations on costs.
    • The market is currently saturated with this type of work, which has led to little interest from contractors to undertake the works.

    Further to the above, in May 2023, Council made a decision to reallocate funding from the Sturt Street West Greening project to other projects to align with the BP&B focus for the 2023-24 financial year. This project was partly funded by Green Adelaide and the Australian Government’s Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program (LRCI).

    The project team will engage with community groups directly to inform them of this decision.

    The Grant Partners have been notified and CoA are looking to reallocate the Green Adelaide and LRCI funding.

Approximately 63% of our general surveys received supported some or all of the priorities identified for 2023/24. A summary of our consultation can be found online here.

    After taking community feedback into consideration, the changes now include:

    • Upgrades to Light Square electrical infrastructure at an estimated cost of $400,000

    • Amending Park Lands event fees from 1 October to reflect a reduction to 2020 fee levels

    • A commitment to continuing to work with ACSARA on its proposed facility within Golden Wattle Park / Mirnu Wirra (Park 21W), and developing policy options for Park Lands buildings for the provision of fit for purpose facilities including toilets, changerooms and storage

We anticipate the greening works to commence in October 2023. You can find out more here.

Signage advising park visitors of the new on-leash requirement will be installed at all Wetland entry points shortly.
