Adelaide Aquatic Centre

A $135 million redevelopment of an iconic recreation asset within the Adelaide Park Lands.

The centre features extensive indoor and outdoor pool areas, water slides, splash zones and lawned recreation spaces, as well as gym and fitness facilities and spa/sauna/steam room. It will be powered using 100% renewable energy. 

URPS added value by determining a clear approval strategy from the outset, effectively mitigating risks and leveraging the strengths of our multidisciplinary team. 

A Code Amendment was prepared to ensure the Code policies promote the objectives of protecting the Adelaide Park Lands while providing the policy framework for the development of a new State community facility. The Code Amendment process required particularly skilled drafting and comprehensive community engagement.
