Tickera Masterplan

Barunga West Council has approved the Tickera Masterplan - a progressive community endorsed blueprint designed to carefully structure growth and development of the Tickera township during the next two decades.

Approval of the Masterplan comes after a comprehensive community engagement process that ran from September 2022 to March 2023 and incorporated a wide range of views and ideas from local and regional stakeholders.

Key elements of the Masterplan include:

  • Improved infrastructure around the boat launching ramp, including formalised parking, landscaping, and clear signage.
  • The release of 13 Crown Land allotments in stages during the next five years, maintaining the aesthetics of the residential area and preserving community open space.
  • Proposed amendments to the Planning Code for the rezoning of Rural Zoned land to Master Planned Township Zone.
  • Pursuit of funding for local road improvements, recreational walking trails, and other key infrastructure projects.
  • The establishment of a dump point and bin bay to manage waste generated by visitors.

Council also is advocating for the State and Federal Governments to contribute funding towards an upgrade of the Alford to Tickera Road. This will form part of the Yorke Peninsula Regional Plan, currently being developed by the State Government. The approved Masterplan will influence the future of land release, zoning, and infrastructure planning in Tickera, ensuring the growth and development of the township aligns with the vision and expectations of the local community. The Masterplan is a “living document”, so Council can update it as required over time.
