CityPlan 2030: Shaping Our Future - Update 2024
15/01/2024
CityPlan 2030: Shaping Our Future is the leading document in the Council’s Strategic Planning Framework and guides the future planning, programming and delivery of projects and services for the City.
The Council is currently reviewing its Strategic Management Plan, CityPlan 2030 – Update 2024.
CityPlan 2030, provides the overarching strategic framework for all of the Council’s services, projects and decision-making. It is based on a Quadruple Bottom Line approach, applying best practice sustainability principles to guide all decisions as to how the Council plans and delivers its services and facilities. The four (4) pillars of integrated sustainability, upon which the Council has based its strategic plan are: Social Equity, Cultural Vitality, Economic Prosperity and Environmental Sustainability.
CityPlan 2030 was originally developed as a long-term Strategic Management Plan spanning a twenty-year period, in contrast to the traditional short-term plans which have a lifespan of only three-to-five years.

Traffic Study: Glynde, Payneham, Payneham South, Firle, Trinity Gardens and St Morris - Stage 2
29/08/2022
Consultation survey closed 5pm, Monday 29 August 2022.
Consultation outcomes and Final Traffic Study Report
In 2022, the Council engaged consultants to undertake a traffic study of the area bound by Payneham Road, Portrush Road, Magill Road and Glynburn Road (the precinct), which includes the suburbs of Glynde, Payneham, Payneham South, Firle, Trinity Gardens and St Morris.
The traffic study included a Have Your Say! campaign for people who live, work, study in the precinct. We heard from more than 250 citizens and other community members about their concerns regarding car travel (safety, speed and volume), as well as concerns relating to walking, cycling and bus travel in and around the precinct.
The community feedback was analysed and correlated with evidence-based traffic data to develop a Draft Action Plan. The Plan prioritised a list of traffic management measures in order of importance to enable the Council to strategically plan and allocate funding.
A second Have Your Say! campaign was held to provide an opportunity for citizens to review and comment on the Draft Action Plan and recommendations, which helped inform the final traffic study report.
Download: Traffic Study: Glynde, Payneham, Firle, Trinity Gardens & St Morris
The majority of the community supported a speed limit of 40km/h throughout the precinct as well as the installation of traffic calming measures at key locations.
Next steps:
- A 40km/h speed limit will be implemented in every residential street in Glynde, Payneham, Payneham South, Firle, Trinity Gardens and St Morris early in 2024. Citizens will be informed of the timing via a letterbox drop and social media.
- Concept designs for the prioritised traffic management measures will be prepared late 2023 or early 2024. The measures will range from minor installations (signs, pavement marking, pavement bar layouts), to major devices (roundabouts, slow points, raised intersections, driveway links, landscaped islands and pedestrian refuges). The community will be invited to provide comment on the concept designs in the first half of 2024.
