05 Urban Design Framework

32 5.1 Introduction

The role of an Urban Design Framework is to apply the high level Strategies to the physical urban form of Angle Vale. The urban design framework brings together Angle Vale as it is today and the future vision outlined in the Strategies.

Each individual action is intended to contribute to achieving one or more of the high level strategies. Refer to Appendix A (page 70) for a table that nominates which strategies each action is contributing towards. The table illustrates that many individual actions are relevant to multiple strategic aims.

5.2 Concept Diagram

A Concept Diagram is a simple conceptual sketch that encapsulates the key elements of the urban design framework.

5.3 Precinct Plan 33

To provide a structure to the urban design framework the project study area for Angle Vale has been divided into NORTHERN GROWTH seven precincts. Each precinct identifies an area that has plays a particular role in the physical form of the town, or has similar existing characteristics or EASTERN ESTABLISHED for which a consistent aim or RESIDENTIAL vision has been identified in the Strategies. HEASLIP WESTERN ESTABLISHED BACKBONE RESIDENTIAL The identified precincts are a organising tool in this document only and are not recommended FRADD RD ‘zones’ for the Development Plan although some precinct CENTRE EASTERN boundaries have been informed ESTABLISHED by understanding the existing RESIDENTIAL development plan and some may influence future decisions about zones.

5.4.1 Centre Precinct __This precinct includes the shopping centre, other adjacent retail, large amounts of bitumen car park & surrounding undeveloped land. The service station, Virgara’s cellar door and adjacent vacant land have also been included. __Developing this area as a prosperous centre that is an enjoyable place for pedestrians and has a clear focal point is very important. __Any new retail, eating places, community services or tourist accommodation etc should be located here to reinforce it as the town centre. __New or redeveloped buildings must positively contribute to the Fig 5.3_Centre Precinct Location Heaslip Rd streetscape and not be dominated by extensive car parking

5.4.2 Heaslip Backbone Precinct __Heaslip Road is the ‘backbone’ of Angle Vale, along which the key destinations are located: Virgara winery, shopping centre, primary school, childcare, local shops & Trinity College. The precinct extends from Virgara winery to the northern end of the Trinity College grounds and includes the properties on either side of Heaslip Road. __Enhancing the streetscape of Heaslip Rd will address multiple issues in a coordinated way: improve drainage, the quality of pedestrian & cycle routes, improve town appearance, way finding & character and will encourage private development of blocks along Fig 5.4_Heaslip Backbone Precinct Location the street.

5.4.3 Western Established Residential Precinct __This area is largely established residential streets with some undeveloped sites on the northern edge, including the ‘Golden Eggs’ site which is approved for a subdivision with 63 new blocks. It includes Angle Vale Road. __This precinct will remain stable with completion of residential subdivisions on the remaining undeveloped land in the northern area of the precinct. __Enhance key streets for all modes of travel and improved character Fig 5.5_Western Established Residential Precinct and reinforce this established western boundary of the town with Location landscaping and gateway elements.

5.4.4 Eastern Established Residential Precinct __This area is largely established residential streets with an undeveloped site east of the primary school. The precinct is in two parts separated by the Fradd Road Precinct. The northern section includes Angle Vale Road which connects to the new Northern Expressway. __This precinct will remain stable will completion of the recent subdivision in the north of the precinct. __Stimulate development of the central undeveloped land through allowance for a range of block sizes accommodated by delivery of a Fig 5.6_Eastern Established Residential Precinct communal sewer system. Location __Enhance key streets for all modes of travel and improved character and continue street networks into growth precincts to the north and east.

5.4.5 Fradd Road Precinct __This precinct includes important community places; the Primary school, the new retirement village currently under construction and the future sports facility __ With the new Northern Expressway Fradd Rd will be a more local street for cars but an important route for pedestrians and cyclists to these destinations and for school kids & the elderly travelling to Heaslip Road

5.4.6 South East Growth Precinct __This area is largely identified in the State Govt 30 Year Plan for town growth. The area is bounded by Short Rd, Curtis Rd, Frisby Rd and Angle Vale Rd. The area of land east of Frisby Rd to the Northern Expressway has been included by the project team. __This precinct can become new residential neighbourhoods that are well planned with connected streets, local open spaces and modern infrastructure. These neighbourhoods and broader Angle Vale will be supported by commercial and local light industry zones adjacent to Angle Vale road. Fig 5.8_South East Growth Precinct Location __The residential neighbourhoods will respond to location, provide different lifestyle options and contribute to reinforcing character __Creating a multi-functional landscape corridor along the new town boundaries will be important to the identity of Angle Vale as a distinct town & allow it to blend with the rural living to the south. __Development of the south east growth precinct needs to happen in a logical order from its boundaries with the existing town outwards. __It is recommended the South East Growth precinct be commenced before the Northern Growth Precinct to reinforce the central precinct as the actual town centre and due to the need to resolve flooding risks over sections of the northern precinct.

5.4.7 Northern Growth Precinct __This area is identified in the State Govt 30 Year Plan for town growth. The area is bounded by the existing town, Chivell Road, the Gawler River, Riverbanks Rd and Angle Vale Road. __This precinct can become new residential neighbourhoods that are well planned with connected streets, local open spaces and modern infrastructure.

KEY PROJECTS _06 BLUEPRINT Angle Vale Urban Design Framework

06 Key Projects

6.1 Key Project Selection 53

The actions identified across the precincts will be achieved in various different ways which is further explained in the Implementation section on page 65. As urban design is about the physical elements of a place many actions ultimately result in either council construction works or influencing what someone else (e.g a developer) constructs.

Key Projects are construction works that can make a big contribution to the lives of the community, the character of a town & encourage private development or encourage visitors to stop or stay longer. Key Projects are usually of a reasonable scale and in a location that is important to the whole town rather than smaller more local actions, that while important, won’t have a great influence on the broader town.

As the implementation of all of the recommendation actions will happen over many years the Key Projects are nominated as priority projects for the council to pursue in the short to medium term.

Key Projects must address a location and issue that is in council’s juristiction and be achieveable from a design and budget perspective and be able to be logically delivered in stages if necessary.

The three key projects for Angle Vale have been selected to achieve change across a range of important urban design issues including town centre vibrancy, quality connections, public space for _06 community life and town identity. BLUEPRINT Angle Vale Urban Design Framework

CONCLUSION_08 BLUEPRINT Angle Vale Urban Design Framework

08 Conclusion

The aim of this Urban Design Framework is to stimulate positive 71 change and set out a long term strategic vision for Angle Vale that responds to the state government directions of growth and builds on the positives of the existing town.

The framework outlines specific actions that are achievable over time and together will work to achieve the high level strategies that set the vision for the future of Angle Vale.

This Urban Design Framework is a key document for Council in guiding future development, establishing land use policies and the strategic implementation of capital works improvement projects for Angle Vale. It is an important first step in the ongoing BLUEPRINT Townships initiative.

Commitment from council to implementing the framework, along with involvement from key stakeholders such as state government, the community, business and land owners is fundamental to translating the framework from the page into a physical reality on the ground for Angle Vale.
