Consultation has concluded

The Beulah Road Bike Route Working Group has met and taken part in a series of workshops to develop options that will achieve a pedestrian and cyclist friendly Beulah Road. The group have developed suggested traffic calming measures and changes to the road environment and now seek your opinion on the proposals.

The opportunity

The Motor Accident Commission (MAC) through the Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure (DPTI) have offered funding to Councils to undertake safety enhancements on the cycle route that spans from Rundle Street in Adelaide City to Cuthero Terrace, Kensington Gardens.

Council’s Bicycle Strategy was adopted in October 2012. The Strategy identified existing Council and regional routes, including a route on Beulah Road between Glynburn Road and Portrush Road.

This route has long been a popular cycling route link to Norwood using Portrush Road median crossing.

More information about the project can be found below.

What has happened?

Council contacted all residents of Beulah Road in August 2014 and sought participants for a Beulah Road Bike Route Working Party. The group was supported by a technical team, comprising engineers from Council and DPTI, and have developed a number of design concepts for Beulah Road.

These concepts ensure that Beulah Road would:

- be a safer and more pleasant cycling route.

- not divert traffic to other streets.

- be acceptable to the residents.

What happens now?

The design concepts developed for Beulah Road, East and West of Gurrs Road, are presented below.

Council is contacting you to ask what options are suitable to you.

As a resident of Beulah Road, or a regular user of Beulah Road, you will be affected by changes to the road environment.

The responses received will assist Council to determine the solution that will meet the needs of pedestrians, cyclists, motorists and the residents of Beulah Road.

Have your say

After working closely with a team of Beulah Road residents and engineers from DPTI, Council seeks your opinion on the proposed solutions.

Please review the proposed solutions that are presented below and complete the survey by 5 pm on 15 December 2014.

For more information

Contact Kevan Delaney, Council’s Manager Engineering Services, by phone on 8366 4257 or email kdelaney@burnside.sa.gov.au.

What happens next?

The outcomes from the survey will be presented to our Elected Member Council at their January meeting for their endorsement.

Final designs will then be prepared based on Councils endorsed option.

It is expected that construction will be completed by 30 June 2015.

Update

The Beulah Road Bike Route Working Group engagement concluded on 10 September 2014.

A Working Group was established as Council wanted the community involved in the development of design concepts for a cyclist friendly Beulah Road. This route has long been a popular cycling route link to Norwood using Portrush Road median crossing.

The Working Group was supported by a technical team, comprising of engineers from Council and DPTI, and developed a number of design concepts for Beulah Road.

Two engagements followed the Working Group engagement. These were the Beulah Road Bike Route from 1 to 15 December 2014 and the Beulah Road Bike Route (West of Gurrs Road) from 26 February to 13 March 2015.

The Beulah Road Bike Route engagement was open from 1 to 15 December 2015. The Working Group had developed suggested traffic calming measures and changes to the road environment. The design concepts were developed for Beulah Road, East and West of Gurrs Road and were presented to the community during this period. Council sought community feedback on the proposed solutions.

Council considered the initial engagement results and endorsed works comprising of a driveway link, central medians and line marking on the East section of Beulah Road. Council endorsed improvements to the roundabouts on the West section and to consult with these residents on potential flat top road humps.

Council then sought community feedback on the suggestion of a 40 km/h speed limit or the installation of flat top road humps during the Beulah Road Bike Route (West of Gurrs Road) engagement. This was the second engagement and was open from 26 February to 13 March 2015 for people to have their say.

Council has yet to consider the results of the second engagement process however the works on the approved projects is due to start at the end of May 2015 and be completed by 30 June 2015.
