The State Planning Commission has released the Greater Adelaide Regional Plan and wants to hear from community, councils and industry on how the state can sustainably prepare for future growth.

The Greater Adelaide Regional Plan set outs a long-term vision for Greater Adelaide, detailing where people will live and work, how they will move around and where they will access services. It provides data and recommendations for managing growth and adapting to changes in our community and urban environment.

Additionally, the Greater Adelaide Regional Plan focuses on the maintenance of green spaces and tree canopies, modernising essential services and infrastructure, recognising neighbourhood character and prioritising environmental sustainability.

The Greater Adelaide region, spanning 11,000 square kilometres from Cape Jervis to Murray Bridge taking in the townships of the Barossa and the boundary of Port Wakefield, is home to approximately 85 per cent of the state’s population.

South Australians are invited to share their views on the Greater Adelaide Regional Plan, which outlines a comprehensive strategy for the region’s growth and a vision for sustainable development over the next 30 years.

Consultation closes at 5:00pm on Monday 4 November 2024.
