Additional security measures have been put in place at Adelaide Oval for tonight's Big Bash match after a series of terrorism attacks overseas.

Temporary concrete bollards will be erected after a recommendation from South Australian police.

The temporary measures will be in place for the cricket season and more permanent measures will be installed before the start of the 2017 AFL season.

The State Government will pay about $1 million towards the permanent measures which will include retractable bollards, concrete seating and planted boxes.

The measures are aimed at preventing deadly attacks where trucks are used, similar to those in Nice and Berlin.

Temporary concrete barriers normally used at the Adelaide 500 car race have been placed strategically around the oval's southern and eastern entrances.

Assistant Police Commissioner Noel Bamford said no specific threats had been made, but police updated their security recommendations after the July truck attack in Nice.

"The threat that we've engaged with Adelaide Oval is specifically in relation to a hostile vehicle attack," he said.

"Whether it's a truck, a bus or a car but when you put mitigation treatments like this in place, you'll actually reduce the terrorist threat across a range of things."

Police said there was "currently no localised threat to Adelaide Oval".

The national terrorism threat level remains at "probable".

Government constantly reviews threat level

Transport and Infrastructure Minister Stephen Mullighan said the Government constantly reviewed the state's threat level.

"The safety and security of Adelaide Oval attendees and staff is our number one priority," he said.

Police Minister Peter Malinauskas said it was important to introduce strategies to minimise risks wherever possible.

"There is no need for South Australians to be alarmed by these precautionary measures as there is no localised threat to Adelaide Oval," he said.

Adelaide Oval Stadium Management Authority chief executive Andrew Daniels said the venue had close working relationships with security authorities.

"We never take any chances with the safety of patrons, and today is another example of that commitment," he said.
