It has been a very busy time for SPA’s landscape team of late and we have just issued a special Landscape dedicated edition of Sitenotes

SPA’s landscape team have been busy creating designs for the future development of Le Fevre Peninsula. There are five open spaces of particular focus that will incorporate areas for gathering and seating, walking and cycling trails, access to Port River, river viewing points and a play park with a climbing structure and flying fox to boot!

Trail projects are keeping us busy with the landscape team confirming alignments of the Sturt River trail, continuing to the develop the 2006 Sturt River Linea Park Master Plan as well as the development of mountain bike trails in NSW and Victoria.

Finally, the SPA landscape team has recently enjoyed collaborating with local artists to develop a sculptural new entry statement proposal at Gawler and a number of features to be incorporated into the architecture and landscape at the new mental health facilities at Glenside.

For more details on these projects contact the office for a copy of Sitenotes.
