A project to create 12,000 homes in Adelaide's northern outskirts will drive unnecessary urban sprawl, according to the SA Greens — but the billionaire developer behind it says it will help improve housing affordability at a time of record prices.
Key points:
The developer says it will open up affordable housing on Adelaide's northern fringe
The Greens say the project is in a flood-prone area
After more than a decade of planning, work is now going ahead on the Walker Corporation's Buckland Park project near the towns of Virginia and Angle Vale and their surrounding market gardening communities.
