Construction update – March 2026

Tree planting and vegetation works on Murray Road are currently on hold while our contractor continues to investigate and resolve irrigation supply issues affecting the newly installed garden beds.

This is a plan to improve Murray Road in Port Noarlunga.

Here’s what is changing:

  • A new footpath will be built on the southern side of the road.
  • There is already a footpath on the northern side, so there will be a footpath on both sides.
  • Stormwater drains will be upgraded to help manage rainwater.
  • Kerb ramps will be added to make it easier for people using wheelchairs, prams or walkers.
  • Rain gardens and trees will be planted along the road.
  • Parking bays will be built.
    – There will be 39 parking spaces in total.
    – 7 on the north side and 32 on the south side.
  • Some areas will be marked as no stopping zones to help traffic flow safely.
  • Better lighting will be added to make the road safer at night.
  • Safe crossing areas will be built at the Witton Road end.

Some of the footpaths and kerbs that are already in good condition will stay the same.

This plan is part of making the street safer and easier for everyone to use.
