Save Helen Mayo Park


Save Helen Mayo Park
The issue
Helen Mayo Park - part of the world-unique, National Heritage-listed Adelaide Park Lands - is threatened by the Premier's proposed $660 million stadium.
Construction of this proposed stadium on your Open Green Public Park Lands would:
- require the expensive and disruptive relocation of rowing clubs in the immediate vicinity;
- be contrary to the Government’s own “Green Adelaide” priority “to increase tree canopy cover and green spaces”;
- reduce the amenity of the running, cycling and walking path along the River Torrens Linear Park, including the Adelaide Kaurna Walking Trail through Helen Mayo Park;
- be almost twice as expensive for taxpayers as the option of upgrading the Entertainment Centre at Hindmarsh;
- be a dubious priority for public spending when there are far more pressing needs within the public health system; and
- be contrary to the statutory principles of the Adelaide Park Lands Act 2005 “to protect and enhance the Adelaide Park Lands”.
Please sign to "Save Helen Mayo Park" if you agree with ANY of these reasons!
