INVESTMENT IN INFRASTRUCTURE

Together with other investments included in SA Water’s 2024-28 existing delivery program, the State Government’s extra $1.2 billion investment in water and wastewater infrastructure will enable delivery of services to an estimated 40,000 new homes across our state, including an extra 17,000 homes in the state’s growth areas.

This significant investment will unlock housing growth in suburbs across Adelaide’s north and south including; Angle Vale, Virginia, Two Wells,  Riverlea, Gawler East, Roseworthy, Hackham (Onkaparinga Heights), Eyre and Blakeview, while preparing us for the next stages of development in areas like Concordia.

Standard requirements for local infrastructure will be developed and applied across greenfield areas in the first instance, addressing a key factor contributing to delays in approving residential land divisions.
