In 2010, we identified the need to revitalise the Woodville Road precinct to support future development.

We conducted extensive community and stakeholder consultation and design workshops.

The Woodville Village Masterplan was prepared and endorsed by Council in September 2010 to invigorate Woodville Road and create a ‘sense of place’ that reflects the local culture, heritage and character of the area.

Woodville Village Masterplan

Features of the Masterplan included:

• Completing the development of St Clair Reserve, creating an attractive and continuous green corridor from Woodville Road to Cheltenham Parade

• Encouraging shops, cafes, restaurants and offices to connect with Woodville Road and reflect the multi-cultural character of the community

• Rebuilding the image of the Woodville Town Hall to accommodate community services and create a community hub

• Redeveloping our assets at 56 and 65 Woodville Road

Implementation Strategy

Recommendations included:

• Reducing the speed limit for Woodville Road to 50kph between Port and Torrens Roads

• Investigating an upgrade of the St Clair Recreation Centre

• Pursuing a range of economic development initiatives including branding and identity, and the potential to create a traders’ association

• Developing our land between NNQ and the Railway Station (67-85 Woodville Road)

• Traffic modelling for Woodville Road to develop a design that:1. allows for safer local traffic

conditions2. improves pedestrian and

streetscape environment3. provides dedicated

right turn lanes with landscaped median, and widened footpaths

The Woodville Road Streetscape Upgrade, between Port Road and Woodville Railway Station, is proposed as three stages:

Stage 1: Upgrade Woodville Road Streetscape.

Stage 2: Potential new development at 67-85 Woodville Road including public plaza, and relocation of commuter parking to north of the train line.

Stage 3: New gateway statement at the intersection of Port and Woodville Roads or other locations along Woodville Road.

Each stage may form a standalone project (subject to funding, community feedback and development opportunities), or be delivered at the same time.
