Code Amendment ID: 10146 785-825 Port Wakefield Road, Globe Derby Park

The Code Amendment proposes to rezone approximately 8.3 hectares of land to the Employment Zone to support employment related land uses and strengthen the local economy through investment and jobs.

The Affected Area is currently zoned Rural and represents a pocket of rural zoning which is largely out of place and underutilised. The completion of the Northern Connector has changed the economic outlook of the locality and access to the North-South Corridor is provided via Hodgson Road, less than one kilometre from the Affected Area. There is now significant opportunity to leverage off this important piece of infrastructure and provide a diversity of employment uses along Port Wakefield Road.

The state government’s Greater Adelaide Regional Plan identifies the western side of Port Wakefield Road in this location as a Strategic Growth Corridor Precinct and ‘Future Employment’. The Code Amendment therefore supports implementation of the Regional Plan. The rezoning also supports the City of Salisbury’s endorsed a Strategic Growth Framework for the Waterloo Corner and Bolivar Corridor.
