Safety upgrades completed for Golden Grove

Tuesday, 1 April 2025
Upgrades on two intersections along The Grove Way in Golden Grove are now complete, delivering on the South Australian Government’s election commitment to upgrade or investigate potential upgrades in the northern suburbs.
The improvements at the intersection of The Grove Way, Atlantis Drive and Aeolian Drive and at The Grove Way and The Golden Way intersection will improve safety and access and make travel easier for all users.
These two upgrades were funded by the Australian Government’s Black Spot Program, which directly targets improvements on high-risk roads or roads with a proven crash history, with the projects receiving a total of $1.75 million.
The works completed at The Grove Way, Atlantis Drive and Aeolian Drive intersection include:
- upgraded signals to add in right turn arrows from Atlantis Drive and Aeolian Drive onto The Grove Way
- traffic signal modifications and upgrades with new phasing
- updated line marking to improve safety at the intersection
- upgrading pedestrian ramps
- upgraded lighting.
The works completed at the intersection of The Grove Way and The Golden Way include:
- additional right turn lane from The Grove Way to The Golden Way (west bound)
- traffic signal modifications and upgrades with new phasing
- updated line marking
- upgrading pedestrian ramps
- upgraded lighting.
These intersection upgrades supported eight full time jobs during the construction period.
The intersection of The Golden Way with The Grove Shopping Centre access has also been upgraded, improving pedestrian safety, particularly for pedestrians accessing Gleeson College, Golden Grove High School and Pedare Christian College.
The $2 million upgrade, funded through the South Australian Government’s School Crossing Program, includes the addition of a left turn lane within the traffic signals and removal of the left slip lane, allowing pedestrians to cross without needing to wait at a traffic island.
It also includes upgraded lighting to improve visibility, upgraded pedestrian ramps to improve safety and accessibility, along with minor pavement upgrades and drainage improvements.
This project is one of eight locations identified across South Australia for upgrades as part of a broader strategy to improve road safety for all pedestrians, in particular for children walking to and from school.
