Local walkers, runners, cyclists, pram-users and wheelchair-users will soon enjoy greater safety in and around Forestville Reserve, with widened archways under the tram line and broadened shared paths.
“We’ve saved Forestville Reserve! This is a great day for our environment and for the long-term future of our beloved and beautiful local reserve,” Member for Badcoe Jayne Stinson said.
“The government’s listened to locals, undertaken detailed and meaningful consultation, along with engineering analysis of all possible alternatives.”
A renowned school for Aboriginal students will move to bigger and better premises at Thebarton as part of a State Government relocation plan linked to the River Torrens to Darlington Project.
From the start of the 2025 school year, Warriappendi School will shift from its current location at Marleston to the refurbished former TechinSA building in Thebarton, making way for construction of the T2D motorway.
We had a terrific day yesterday, a couple of hundred locals from the Edwardstown area rocked up at what’s now called The Pines … Angus calling that name for it and these are bike jumps that … Angus … has been making by hand, himself, for many years since he was just 11 and what happened … last year … they came under threat, it looked like they were going to get bulldozed, and Angus … rallied 1,000 signatures on a petition … and I got involved as well
Jayne Stinson MP has lodged a submission with RenewalSA detailing the views and concerns of the Badcoe community about the planned Locale development at Forestville.
The submission is based on extensive community consultation conducted by Ms Stinson spanning several years, as well as survey results since the latest plans were released in 2021.

I, myself, am a sufferer of regular UTIs and patients have been raising with me that this is a model that works well in Queensland and was something they wanted South Australia to investigate. It can be, and it is, a very painful, excruciating in fact condition when you get it and we don’t women suffering any longer than is absolutely necessary.

A key stretch of South Road will get a major makeover in coming months, with $22 million of vital resurfacing works set to kick off as part of the River Torrens to Darlington Project.
The initial works will be carried out in both directions on a 3km section between Glengarry Avenue, Glandore, and Bennet Avenue, Melrose Park - delivering a vastly smoother and safer ride for motorists above where the Southern Tunnels will be.
There’s been quite a community campaign to bring those heights back down to a consistent three storeys along that stretch to protect the character zone. So recently we finally won the fight for a Code Amendment which was essentially to look at the review the zoning. A whopping 216 public submissions were put in – that’s people who put pen to paper and said look we want this reduced back down to three storeys.
