Since our appointment to the State Planning Commission in 2017, we have noted the commitment to reform demonstrated by local government, the planning and development industries and the community. Consistent with the principles of the Community Engagement Charter, we are committed Tim Anderson QC to working with you in developing a Code that helps shape South Australia as a great place to live, work, Chair, State Planning Commission visit and enjoy. We recognise that many councils and communities have a strong sense of ownership over policies that apply to their area. The Commission does not want to see positive policy gains implemented in the past few years discarded when drafting the Code and acknowledges the importance of policies that help implement the vision for local areas. However, we are also aware that we can streamline many areas of policy conflict and/or constricting or duplicated policy. We must prepare for significant policy challenges that our state will face in the medium and longer term. We may not be able to tackle all these issues in the first generation of the Code, but we can start the conversation around what the future could look like. We are pleased to release this ‘Blueprint for South Australia’s Planning and Design Code’ introductory paper which presents the first formal introduction to the Code and sets the scene for ongoing conversations with planners, developers, local governments and the community to actively engage in its preparation. The paper provides a foundation for a series of policy and technical discussion papers that together will underpin the Code. 3 THE BLUEPRINT FOR SOUTH AUSTRALIA’S PLANNING AND DESIGN CODE Introductory discussion paper 4 Introductory discussion paper CONTENTS Introducing the Blueprint for South Australia’s Planning and Design Code 6 Our new system and the Planning and Design Code 8 Building on the strong foundations of our past 17 Challenges and opportunities for the future 27 Next steps 49 How you can get involved 52 Photos throughout this document are courtesy of the Department of Planning, Development and Infrastructure, the South Australian Tourism Commission, the State Library of South Australia, Philip Knight, Renewal SA, AILA and City of Adelaide.

Justifi cation and benefi ts of the Northern Expressway and Port Wakefi eld Road Upgrade 4-1 5. Alternative routes considered and the selected route 5-1 6. Economic and fi nancial assessment 6-1 Northern Expressway Environmental Report 4 Justification and benefits of the Northern Expressway and Port Wakefield Road Upgrade 4.1 Introduction The proposed Northern Expressway and Port Wakefield Road Upgrade will provide significant State and regional benefits, in particular by improving access to Adelaide for freight transport via the Sturt Highway, including freight for export from key areas such as the Barossa Valley wine producing area and the Riverland wine and citrus producing area. Together with the Port River Expressway, it will provide a high standard link between the Sturt Highway at Gawler and the Port of Adelaide, South Australia’s main shipping port. It will remove much heavy freight traffic from Main North Road, Angle Vale Road and Heaslip Road, lessening congestion and improving safety for urban traffic in the northern suburbs. 4.1.1 Background Part A outlined the various studies undertaken that justify the need for the Northern Expressway. For example, the Strategic Planning Study by SKM in 1998 concluded that there was a need to provide additional capacity for traffic movement from the outer northern suburbs, and that it is significantly more cost effective to develop a new route on the fringe of the northern urban area than to upgrade the existing Main North Road through northern metropolitan Adelaide.

  • 13 Transport
    Northern Expressway Environmental Report 13 Transport 13.1 Introduction The existing transport network operates at an acceptable to poor level along most arterial roads in the study area. The predicted increase in traffic volumes on the current network will significantly increase delays and congestion, particularly along Main North Road and Heaslip Road. The construction of the Northern Expressway will provide an important link to the South Australian freight network. In general, consultation comments to date have been supportive of the Expressway, recognising the benefits of freight being diverted from local roads in the study area, improved travel times and improved access to other regions. Comments have also highlighted concerns from local people about access to their properties, to the Expressway, east–west access across the Expressway, and the effects on Port Wakefield Road. 13.2 Existing transport network 13.2.1 Arterial road network The fold-out plan at the back of this Environmental Report shows the road network within the study area. It is characterised by three major north–south roads: Port Wakefield Road, Heaslip–Angle Vale Road and Main North Road (and the Gawler Bypass). Main North Road and Port Wakefield Road form part of the existing National Network; Heaslip–Angle Vale Road is considered a significant freight route and connects the two National Network links. Main North Road and Heaslip Road form the main connections to the Mid North (e.g. Clare) and to the Riverland areas of South Australia as well as to northern Victoria and New South Wales via the Sturt Highway. The remaining arterial roads (generally east–west such as Womma Road, Penfield Road, Angle Vale Road and Two Wells Road) perform linking functions within the road network to the AusLink National Network and surrounding communities.

Community and stakeholder engagement 3-1 Northern Expressway Environmental Report 1 What is the Northern Expressway Project? 1.1 Overview The proposed Northern Expressway Project consists of two components: the Northern Expressway (between Gawler and Port Wakefield Road) and the Port Wakefield Road Upgrade. The project will provide an improved highway and freight connection through metropolitan Adelaide between the Sturt Highway at Gawler and the Port River Expressway. This project will improve freight access from the northern areas of the State and from the main highways, and link key centres in the north, east and west of Australia with the Port of Adelaide, South Australia’s main shipping port. The location plan in Figure 1.1 places this road infrastructure in context. The Northern Expressway component – 23 km of new four-lane expressway with restricted access and a speed limit of 110 km/h – will link to Port Wakefield Road with a new intersection to the north of Taylors Road, approximately 3 km north of the Waterloo Corner intersection. Port Wakefield Road will be upgraded at key locations between the new intersection and the existing intersection with the Salisbury Highway; some local roads will be diverted to service road access for improved safety. The Expressway will replace the section of Main North Road between Gawler and Gepps Cross as the designated AusLink National Network road link. The proposed Northern Expressway and Port Wakefield Road Upgrade is South Australia’s largest and highest priority project under the current AusLink Investment Program and, as such, has the commitment of the South Australian Government.
