The upgrade of St Peters Street, delivering a beautiful and safe street for pedestrians, cyclists and motorists, and providing improved amenity and connection between the River Torrens Linear Park and other major focal points within the Precinct.
The project was jointly funded by the City of Norwood Payneham & St Peters, the Australian Government and Green Adelaide.
The Australian Government contributed $1.27 million as part of its Local Government and Community Infrastructure Program. Green Adelaide contributed $200k as part of its Greener Neighbourhoods Program. The Council funded the remaining balance of the Project.
Watch Mayor Bria speak about the Upgrade:
The St Peters Street Streetscape Upgrade builds on previous upgrades to the St Peters Precinct, including Linde Reserve-Dunstone Grove, St Peters Town Hall Complex and Avenue of Honour from Payneham Road to Second Avenue.
The key features of the upgrade include:
improved amenity and accessibility for pedestrians and cyclists
improved access and amenity of the open space adjacent to Eighth Avenue and the St Peters Billabong
new trees and landscaping
improved local storm water management
a revitalised central median and wider footpaths
improved connection to the River Torrens.
We are pleased to share that the St Peters Street Project won four awards at the AILA SA 2024 Annual Awards held in June in the following categories:
And in October at the Australian Institute of Landscape Architects (AILA) 2024 Landscape Architecture Awards won both the prestigious 2024 AILA National Award of Excellence for Infrastructure and the National Climate Positive Design Award.
