Springbank Road Pedestrian Actuated Crossing Project

Springbank Road Pedestrian Actuated Crossing Project

We're making it safer and more convenient for pedestrians and cyclists to cross Springbank Road, Colonel Light Gardens and Panorama.

Improved access for vehicles turning onto Springbank Road.
Smoother and safer travel for cyclists.
Safer and more convenient pedestrian access.

About the project

We are installing push-button pedestrian crossings on Springbank Road, between Daniels Road and Eliza Place in Colonel Light Gardens and Panorama. We refer to these as Pedestrian Actuated Crossings, or PACs. 

This will improve:

  • pedestrian and cyclist safety

  • access to nearby businesses and homes

  • bicycle and pedestrian connectivity across Springbank Road.

What's happening

This project will include:

  • installation of new traffic lights, with countdown crossing timers

  • new pedestrian ramps

  • new line marking to facilitate safe crossings for pedestrians and cyclists

  • audible push buttons

  • retention of eastbound right turn lane onto Eliza Place

Project background

In 2022, we undertook a traffic safety and access review of Springbank Road as part of the South Australian Government's commitment. Following the review, we released the Springbank Road Traffic Safety and Access Report (PDF 2.3MB).

The report summarises the conditions along Springbank Road, including collecting and evaluating data such as:

  • surveys of pedestrian movements

  • an audit of pedestrian facilities

  • vehicle crash analysis

  • analysis of traffic movements and public transport.

In response to the feedback on the report, an additional signalised pedestrian actuated (push button) crossing was proposed on Springbank Road, between Eliza Place and Daniels Road.
