New suburb name and boundaries in Buckland Park

Have your say on a proposed new suburb name Riverlea Park and its boundaries.

What's being decided?

It’s proposed to rename a portion of Buckland Park to Riverlea Park where an urban development project is underway.

Background

Buckland Park is the site of a planned residential, commercial and industrial master-planned community that is currently under construction. The developer has provided a submission to the Surveyor-General requesting to rename part of the suburb to help differentiate the area being developed from Buckland Park’s agricultural and rural identity.

Under the proposal, a 1600 ha section of Buckland Park (as shown in the maps) would be renamed Riverlea Park. The suburb name of Buckland Park would be kept for those parts of the existing suburb which will remain agricultural.

Some properties just outside of the development would also be included in the name change. This is so that Riverlea Park would have logical and recognisable suburb boundaries, including Port Wakefield Highway to the east and Carmelo Rd to the south.
