BEACH MAT TRIAL
The City of Port Adelaide Enfield is working collaboratively to
improve access to services and key locations for people with
launched the trial of our beach access mats on
Thursday 30 June at Semaphore.
Two different types of beach access mats will be trialled in
the coming months. One will be at Semaphore just north
of the Palais Hotel, and the other at Largs Bay alongside the
Largs Bay Sailing Club.
During the trial period, Council will respond to any issues
arising as we work towards an effective solution of having
universal beach access for everybody. Beach wheelchairs
will also be investigated for future purchase and hire.
You can watch a video of the trial rollout over on our
Facebook page or on our website.
We would love to know what you think of the mats and
which you prefer. Please email your comments to
