Flat Northern Plain
Pooraka is one of Adelaide's few genuinely mixed-use northern suburbs — residential streets sitting directly alongside industrial corridors along Main North Road and the broader Salisbury employment zone. That dual character creates a wider range of surveying requirements than most suburbs of its size.
About 12 km north of the CBD in the City of Salisbury, Pooraka is seeing ongoing development investment across both land uses. City Surveyors Adelaide brings 20+ years of combined experience to this northern corridor — residential boundary and subdivision work, and the more complex detail and set-out surveys that industrial developments require.
Surveying Services in Pooraka
We survey residential and industrial allotments in Pooraka — locating all boundary pegs, identifying easements (drainage and access easements are common along the Main North Road corridor), and producing clear boundary plans for development or sales purposes.
For residential properties, we capture dwelling footprints, outbuildings, trees, and levels. For industrial sites, we extend to hardstand areas, loading docks, drainage pits, and service infrastructure. Delivered as DXF/DWG files.
Residential allotments of 600 m²+ may be eligible for two-lot division under Salisbury's planning framework. We assess feasibility, design new lots, and prepare the full Land Services SA lodgement package.
We set out residential homes and industrial structures to approved plans. Industrial set-outs include building lines, slab levels, and access setbacks — critical on sites with tight boundary margins to neighbouring properties or roads.
Confirms all structures on a property sit within legal title boundaries. In Pooraka, commonly needed on industrial properties where additions and hardstand areas have expanded over years, and on residential lots ahead of sale or development.
