Why did we propose this suburb?

Cheltenham

Customer requests have been received from residents within a number of streets within Cheltenham which triggered a review of traffic conditions, identifying that speeds on local roads across the suburb are higher than desirable for local roads. In line with Council’s endorsed Road Safety Assessment Procedure, consideration should be given to implementation of a 40km/h Area which will treat the entire precinct, rather than treating individual streets with traffic control devices where appropriate.

Port Adelaide Enfield will be consulting on extending the Cheltenham 40km/h Area within their streets up to Brougham Place which will incorporate the Alberton Oval precinct and result in a clearly defined boundary.

Henley & Fulham Gardens

Petitions have been received for reduced speed limits on Menkens Street Fulham Gardens and Military Road Henley Beach. The section to the north of Marlborough Street has been excluded due to a previous resolution to exclude the section of Fulham Gardens between Tapleys Hill Road, Marlborough Street, Mitton Avenue and Grange Road (refer CL 25/09/17, Item 2.2).

The remaining streets in this south-eastern corner are within the City of West Torrens. They have not agreed to include their streets within the 40 Area. To ensure a clear boundary, North Street (from Henley Beach Road to Cheadle Street) and Cheadle Street have been chosen as the boundary roads and will remain as 50km/h.

West Lakes Shore & Semaphore Park

Customer requests were received during the consultation about Fairford Terrace road safety improvements and Council resolved that consultation be undertaken on surrounding streets in 2022/23. Refer AM 16/08/21, Item 4.50

Please note that Bartley Terrace will remain at 50km/hr.

Albert Park, Hendon & Royal Park

Customer requests were received both during consultation on the Albert Park Your Neighbourhood Plan as well as several standalone requests to staff and Elected Members. Council resolved that consultation be undertaken in these areas in line with the Road Safety Assessment Procedure and New Traffic Control Device Strategy (refer AM 18/10/2021, Item 4.64).
