Background
The City of Marion’s road network affects all residents, businesses, visitors, and those who drive through the Council area to reach other destinations. Therefore, the design of our roads can have a reaching impact through providing amenity, economic development, and improved community health & safety. Consequently, Council has developed a Streetscape Policy and program to revitalize its street network.
Morphett Road has been identified as one of the roads Council will be improving, spending a total of $1.2. million over the next 6 Months. We are now consulting on our plans.

The purpose of this engagement is to provide clear information and the opportunity for feedback in relation to the proposed streetscape upgrade of Morphett Road, between Sturt Road and Diagonal Road.
The main features of the design are:
- Provide a high quality, robust and distinctive streetscape design.
- Reconstruct existing footpath on the western and eastern side of Morphett Road.
- Extensive street tree planting to improve amenity and provide shade.
- Landscaping, including Water Sensitive Urban Design along the road.
- Enhance the entrance into the City of Marion.
