Adelaide 500

Victoria Park, also known as Park 16 and Pakapakanthi, is a park located in the Southeastern Park Lands of the South Australian capital of Adelaide. It is bordered by Fullarton Road, Greenhill Road, East Terrace and Wakefield Road. It hosts a variety of major events throughout the year, the most prominent of which have been the Formula 1, from 1985 to 1995, and from 1999 the Adelaide 500/Clipsal 500, cancelled in 2020 for the 2021 season, because of the COVID.

The Britannia Roundabout is a roundabout intersection on the eastern side of the City Ring Route near the city centre of Adelaide. Before it was upgraded in 2014, many minor accidents had occurred over the years at this former traffic black spot.The five roads which join the intersection in clockwise order are Fullarton Road (to the north), Kensington Road to the east, Fullarton Road (to the south), Wakefield Road (to the west) and Dequetteville Terrace (to the northwest). All five roads are two lanes incoming. Drivers travelling in a south easterly direction on Dequetteville Terrace faced difficulty at the intersection because Wakefield Road traffic came from well over their right shoulder. The angle is less than 45 degrees. The north western intersection of the roundabout was used as a hairpin corner on the Adelaide Street Circuit, the temporary motor racing track and for a long time was named Foster's Corner. The intersection takes its name from the Britannia Hotel, a pub located on the corner of Fullarton and Kensington Roads. There had been persistent calls for the intersection to be replaced or improved over many years. In June 2013, the State Government proposed a safer re-design of the roundabout, splitting it into two smaller roundabouts. The project cost was estimated at $3.2 million, and involved the removal of a small number of trees from the nearby parkland. In April 2014, the new and upgraded Britannia Roundabouts came into operation.

Kensington Road is a main road in the South Australian capital city of Adelaide. It serves the eastern suburbs, primarily the northern side of the City of Burnside and the southern side of the City of Norwood, Payneham & St Peters. Its western end, on the edge of the city centre, is at the Britannia Roundabout on the City Ring Route. Kensington Road continues into the city centre as Wakefield Road. It has also been subject to controversial development by the Shahin family for their OTR headquarters, with over five attempts of approval despite community opposition.

The Adelaide Street Circuit (also known as the Adelaide Parklands Circuit) is a temporary street circuit in the East Parklands adjacent to the Adelaide central business district in South Australia, Australia. The 3.780 km (2.349 mi) "Grand Prix" version of the track hosted eleven Formula One Australian Grand Prix events from 1985 to 1995, as well as an American Le Mans Series endurance race on New Year's Eve in 2000 (Race of a Thousand Years). Between 1999 and 2020 and again from 2022, a shortened 3.219 km (2.000 mi) version of the circuit has been used for the Adelaide 500 touring car race. A sprint version of the circuit was used after 2014.

East Terrace marks the eastern edge of the Adelaide city centre. It is one of the main north–south thoroughfares through the east side of the city. Although the terrace essentially runs north–south between North Terrace and South Terrace, unlike Adelaide's other three terraces, its path is far from a straight line; travelling the entire length of East Terrace requires turning at right angles at most intersections from Pirie Street onwards. These days however, the traffic flow, after a swerve to the east between Grenfell and Pirie Streets, continues southwards over the Pirie intersection into Hutt Street and on down to South Terrace. After crossing South Terrace, East Terrace continues through the parklands as Beaumont Road, but unlike other roads through the parklands it is not a thoroughfare; there is a break in the middle of it. The terrace marks the eastern edge of Colonel William Light's plan for the City of Adelaide. Between Grenfell Street and North Terrace, it also forms the boundary of Adelaide's East End. East Terrace separates the city centre from the eastern parts of the Parklands, running adjacent to Parks 13 (Rundle Park / Kadlitpina), 14 (Rymill Park), 15 (Ityamaiitpinna), and 16 (Victoria Park). The western edge of the terrace is occupied by shops, restaurants, cafes, office buildings, professional, consulting and medical practises, residences, a school, and a number of churches and pubs. Since July 2012, a dedicated bus lane in both directions has existed between Grenfell Street and North Terrace.

Rymill Park / Murlawirrapurka (previously spelt Mullawirraburka), and numbered as Park 14, is a recreation park located in the East Park Lands of the South Australian capital of Adelaide. There is an artificial lake with rowboats for hire, a café, children's playground and rose garden, and the Adelaide Bowling Club is on the Dequetteville Terrace side. The Adelaide O-Bahn passes underneath it, to emerge at the western side opposite Grenfell Street. Before and in the early days of the colonisation of South Australia, the eastern park lands were used as camping grounds for the local Kaurna people and later people from other nearby Aboriginal peoples, such as the Ngarrindjeri. The park underwent extensive redevelopment, including the construction of the lake, around 1959–1960. It has been used for many cultural and sporting events, in particular Adelaide Fringe, Feast and Festival of Arts events, Carnevale in Adelaide, the Adelaide International Horse Trials. The Fringe venue hub set up on the western side of the park is known as Gluttony.

Dulwich's close location to the Adelaide city centre, grand old houses and leafy tree-lined streets make it an attractive and sought-after suburb.
