Recent improvements to the park
How great does Charles Mutton Reserve look! The Fawkner reserve has recently has a series of upgrades.
- A new mural: Thank-you to artists Abbey Rich and Olana Janfa for the piece which celebrates the diverse community of Fawkner.
- A brand new playground: We kept the popular clatter bridge in the play tower, but we’ve added exciting climbing obstacles. Come on down and test your ninja warrior skills.
- Shelters and picnic tables
The old stone retaining wall between the running track and the oval has been removed and replaced with new stairs, seating walls and garden beds.
Part of implementing a wider plan
We are making other minor improvements to the park, all of which relate to implementing the Charles Mutton Reserve Precinct Plan. This plan was created after consultation with the community in 2018.
Upcoming works
Concept design work has now been completed on Tyrrell Crescent kerb re-alignment with an engineer engaged to explore Water Sensitive Urban Design options. Once an approach has been agreed upon, construction drawings will be completed and works tendered.
