What's being decided?

The State Planning Commission (the Commission) has released the Greater Adelaide Regional Plan (the Plan) and want to hear from community, councils and industry on how we sustainably prepare for future growth.

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

Background

Regional plans play an important role in guiding sustainable growth by identifying land use and long-term infrastructure over a 15 to 30-year period. They outline where new housing and employment areas will be located, how services will be delivered, and what infrastructure is needed while exploring different growth scenarios.

In 2023, the Commission released the Greater Adelaide Regional Plan Discussion Paper for public consultation. This document generated a productive three-month consultation period, during which the community engaged in robust discussions and shared valuable ideas on the region’s long-term vision, transport priorities, open spaces, community infrastructure and potential zoning changes.

Following the consultation, feedback was reviewed, and a report prepared for the Commission. You can read more about the community’s insights in the What We Heard Report.

The Commission, in collaboration with councils, stakeholders and the community, has used feedback to develop the Greater Adelaide Regional Plan. The Plan outlines a comprehensive strategy for the region’s growth and a vision for sustainable development over the next 30 years.

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.
