About the Regional Planning Program

The Greater Adelaide Regional Plan (GARP) will replace the 30-Year Plan for Greater Adelaide. The GARP will determine how urban growth will be managed over the next 30 years by investigating and guiding where houses and employment land will go and what infrastructure is needed.

A draft regional plan will be prepared in early 2024 giving consideration to the feedback received through the Discussion Paper.
