Welcome to Greenwith – now 20% bigger!

Welcome to the newly extended suburb of Greenwith.

From Tuesday 4 April, residents living in the City of Tea Tree Gully council area of Salisbury Heights will have their suburb name changed to Greenwith. This means your address may need to be changed. The South Australian Government are here to help.

If you live within the new boundaries of the extended suburb of Greenwith, you may need to update some of your personal contacts. See our checklist for suggested contacts.

Other location details such as council rates, Australia Post and emergency services will be updated by the State Government and your local council.

See the map showing the new suburban boundaries of Greenwith and Salisbury Heights.

Why?

This suburb extension will align residents and rate payers currently residing in the Salisbury Heights region of the City of Tea Tree Gully with the existing suburb of Greenwith.

This will provide improved access for amenities such as post and emergency services, and a feeling of being better connected to the City of Tea Tree Gully.

Community consultation saw a vast majority of support for this change.

When?

The extension of the suburban boundary of Greenwith comes into effect from Tuesday 4 April 2017.
