Victoria Square - you've had your say!
10 key Adelaide CBD Precinct groups united with a common goal to effectively work with Adelaide City Council in their quest to investigate and plan upgrade options for Vic Square/ Tarndanyangga. 18.2% of participants were from the Hutt Street Precinct.
Here are some of the findings:
74.5% would visit markets and stalls.
72.7% said they would attend a concert/event.
74.5% supported intermittent Grote/Wakefield lane closures for special events.
80% supported the concept of a roundabout style traffic flow.
81.8% was generally supportive of the design progress to date.
Comments on the traffic flow included:
"Business is affected negatively for every road closure and people opt to shop out of the city each time this occurs........"
"Increase car parking in the city and around the city, increase the number of shuttle buses so people can easily get to Vic Square........."
"
The design has taken all ideas into consideration and is multifunctional. I am sure VS will blossom, it is economically viable and will further enhance the lifestyle of the CBD."
74.5% respondents were in business or trading.
23.6% were land/property owners.
23.6% were Adelaide residents.

Hutt Street Communication Cable Installation
A major expansion of the electricity supply to the Adelaide CBD has commenced on Hutt Street. This will ensure continued security and reliability of supply and facilitate the long-term growth and development of Adelaide's economy.
The New Underground Communications Cable Installation is expected to be completed early August.
Access and Maintenance pits will be installed on the western side footpath at approximately 150 metre intervals starting from South Terrace and finishing on Pirie St.
To minimise disruption directional boring techniques will be used. The machinery used is expected to occupy 6 to 7 car parks for two to three days at a time at any one location.
Noise from the drilling process will be evident with work restricted to normal working hours between 9:00am and 4:00pm Monday to Friday.

Pedestrian Refuge for Carrington Street
Council will be seeking consultation with residents and businesses when the final design is completed. Currently it is being reviewed as there needed to be some adjustments due to underground services and street lighting requirements.
If majority support is received, implementation of the pedestrian refuge will proceed. However due to other projects and priorities the refuge will not be installed this financial year, but hopefully in the beginning of the next financial year. We will keep you posted in our newsletter.
