Connect 2 Campbelltown Newsletter – Draft Transport Plan, Proposed Council Boundary Change, Open Space Strategy and more

Dear Community Member

From transport and open space planning to a new food event and our regular coffee chat, there’s a lot happening across Campbelltown. Read on to find out how you can get involved and have your say.

Do you walk, cycle, drive or catch a bus?

Our Draft Transport Plan for Athelstone, Campbelltown, Newton and Paradise proposes a range of initiatives aimed at making the way you travel safer and easier.

Drawing on the feedback we received during the earlier consultation held late last year, these initiatives address roads and traffic, public transport, parking, walking and cycling. We’d love to hear what you think! To find out more and to provide feedback visit the Transport Plan Study (Northern Section) homepage.
Consultation closes 4pm Monday 30 June.

Campbelltown City Council Boundary Change Inquiry

There's still time to share your views on the proposed change to the Campbelltown City Council boundary.

The South Australian Local Government Boundaries Commission is conducting an inquiry into a proposed boundary change that would see parts of Rostrevor and Woodforde (including Hamilton Hill and Rostrevor College) become part of the City of Campbelltown.

To learn more and have your say visit yoursay.sa.gov.au/campbelltown-boundary-review. Consultation closes 5pm Friday 20 June.

Be ready to tell us what you think of Council's plans for almost 400 hectares of open space from next Monday 23 June 2025. Keep an eye on Connect 2 Campbelltown for the details.
