Background

There has been a high level of community interest in the development of a cycling and walking path connecting Willunga and Aldinga for many years. You can read more information about the background and alignment options analysis previously undertaken in the additional background information and on the Aldinga-Willunga Cycleway page.

In April this year the community were advised that a route had been finalised for a shared use cycling and walking path between Willunga and Aldinga. The community were asked to share their local knowledge and suggestions to help inform the final designs for the path. Consultation closed on 4 June 2023.

Thanks to state government funding, the path will provide a 5.8km link for families, riders, runners and tourists between Aldinga Road/ Mainwaring Street intersection in Willunga and Main South Road/ Port Road intersection in Aldinga.

The shared use path will be off-road along Aldinga Road and the majority of Flour Mill Road. An on-road walking/cycling connection will be incorporated for a small segment along Flour Mill Road and Free Lane. The alignment of the path along with montages of sections of the path can be viewed on the plans.

More information can be found in the Frequently Asked Questions.

The development of this path will meet community needs and fill an east-west gap in the shared use path network and is consistent with council’s leading cycling and trails strategic document, the Trails and Cycling Strategic Management Plan.
