What is planned?

We have now completed upgrading the existing small playspace and providing some additional elements in this reserve with park infrastructure improvements.

The temporary fencing will be removed shortly and reserve areas will be re-opened to the public.

How can the community influence this project?

What can be influenced?

  • What type of play would you like to see in the playspace upgrade (e.g. swinging, climbing, sliding, balancing, spinning, etc) and for what child age ranges?
  • What additional elements would you like included in this reserve (e.g. garden beds, buffer planting, trees, a gathering space, table tennis, fitness equipment)?
  • Additional park furniture and fixtures (e.g. seating, picnic settings, accessible drinking fountain)?
  • Anything you can think of to make the space feel unique?

What can't be changed?

  • The upgrade will only cover the reserve and playspace, not surrounding areas (e.g. roads, car parking, lighting, services etc)
  • The playspace footprint cannot be enlarged owing to its surrounding footpaths. Large sized play elements (e.g. a flying fox or tower combination unit etc) cannot be included as insufficient space and proximity of neighbouring properties
  • Sports grounds and their facilities will not be included
  • Unless trees are dead or in decline they will not be removed as part of the works
  • Some park infrastructure elements need to be upgraded for improved accessibility (e.g. bollards and some fencing)
  • The works must fit into the available budget.
