About the Mike Turtur Bikeway railside trail

The Mike Turtur Bikeway is a short railside trail for all the family that follows the tram line from Adelaide to the beach area of Glenelg

Works to relocate service cables near the Mike Turtur Bikeway are continuing. This work is associated with the construction of the Morphett Rd tram and trail overpass. Cyclists will be detoured to local streets to the south while pedestrians will be detoured to the north, using the Anzac Hwy footpath. A new detour will be introduced when construction of the overpass itself starts, requiring the Turtur to be closed at all worksites from August. Refer to NEWS item below for details, including detour map. Cyclists and pedestrians can use the Westside Bikeway as an alternative route.

This is an enjoyable ride that links up with several other shared paths, plus Adelaide’s beaches. It crosses several busy roads but these either have traffic lights or overpasses.
