History
The late 1960s saw Clovelly Park and most other suburbs of Marion turn into a 'family friendly' establishment due to the introduction of parks, reserves, and in the 1970s, playgrounds.
During the 1980s, Clovelly Park shifted to a more retail scene, with the opening and upgrading of a few major shopping centres in surrounding suburbs. Clovelly Park has now lost most of its 'countryside' feel but is still regarded as a safe family friendly neighbourhood.
The southern part of Clovelly Park was often called Tonsley Park. Chrysler, and later on Mitsibishi, referred to their 'Tonsley Park plant'. This part of Clovelly Park (including the former Mitsibishi Motors site) was separated and renamed Tonsley on 27 January 2017.
Transport
Clovelly Park lies adjacent to South Road to the east, and Marion Road liest a short distance to the west. South Road is the main north-south arterial road in Adelaide, and thus provides rapid access to a large portion of the city & surrounds.
The suburb is well serviced by public transport with frequent buses along South Road. In addition, the northern residential portion of Clovelly Park is serviced by the Mitchell Park railway station on the Flinders railway line. The Seaford railway line is close by and accessible via the Ascot Park railway station to the north of the suburb.
