Our invitation to help shape the future of the Adelaide Park Lands resulted in a strong response from the community and stakeholder groups. This valuable feedback is helping to identify key issues and opportunities that will inform the priorities and projects for inclusion in the revised APLMS.

Among the feedback were the following messages about the future of the Adelaide Park Lands:

  • Enhance connections, access and movement.
  • More and higher quality social infrastructure.
  • Create a better path network.
  • More native flora and fauna.
  • Create more attractions / destinations.
  • Make better use of smart technology.
  • Recognise and celebrate Kaurna culture and heritage.
  • Inclusive sporting facilities.
  • Cater for diversity / multi-cultural / all access.
