About the project

BMD partnered with the South Australian Government to upgrade the Yorktown Road and Adams Road intersection, converting the T-junction into a safer, more efficient roundabout.

The project, on the border of Craigmore, Elizabeth Downs and Elizabeth Park, also included additional asphalt reinstatement works to improve the surrounding road network. This upgrade supports urban growth in the region and the ongoing development of the Lyell McEwin Health Precinct.
