Proposed Road Closures McLaren Flat

Consultation has now closed.

Thanks to everyone who provided feedback. All feedback will be provided to council and we'll share the outcomes when they become available.

Background

We are proposing to prohibit motor vehicles from travelling along the unmade sections of Settlement Road and Foggo Road in McLaren Flat in response to concerns that have been raised relating to inappropriate vehicular access.

These concerns include fire risk, and antisocial behaviour occurring on the unmade sections of the road adjacent to residences and commercial vineyard operations.

View the location map for the proposed sections of Foggo and Settlement Roads.

What's being proposed?

It is proposed to:

• Close a 258 metre long section of Settlement Road commencing at its intersection with Foggo Road and extending south-east to a location approximately 870 metres north-west of Penneys Road.
• Close a 162 metre long section of Foggo Road commencing approximately 1,005 metres south of Kays Road to a location approximately 865 metres north of Penneys Road.

Another option available to Council is to close the unmade sections of Settlement Road and Foggo Road to motor vehicles under Section 32 of the Road Traffic Act 1961. This would still allow non-motorised access for pedestrians, horse riders and bicycles, noting that Settlement Road is part of the Willunga Basin Trail.
