 ROBE TERRACE - THREAT TO PARKLANDS

  In reply to Hon. IAN GILFILLAN (24 November).
  The Hon. DIANA LAIDLAW:
 1. While no plans or definitive schemes have been developed at this stage for the upgrading of mid-block section of Robe Terrace, it is envisaged that concept options would be developed optimising the 40m wide road reserve, and therefore would not encroach onto the parklands. It is still too early to determine whether the parklands could be extended to embrace the 66kv line.
 2.& 3. In relation to the possible cribbing of the parklands, the boundaries between the road reserve and parklands are not as definitive as is the case along the main stretch of Robe Terrace. Therefore, it is not possible at this stage to indicate whether there will be a need to undertake any minor cribbing at this complex intersection.
 In the meantime, TransportSA surveyors are working closely with the Adelaide city council to ascertain, in a definitive form, the boundary positions.
 It is anticipated that in April/May 1999, concept options for Robe Terrace will be developed and presented at a workshop to key stakeholders (which will include not only residents and councils but also representatives from the Parklands Preservation Society). After this workshop an agreed scheme (including any possible cribbing) will be developed.
