Playgrounds to be renewed in 2023/24

Three local playgrounds were identified for renewal in 2023/24, as informed by our Open Space and Recreation Infrastructure Asset Management Plan. Consultation was undertaken on a draft playground renewal concept plan, where local residents of the three playgrounds, and the wider public were invited to provide their feedback. This occurred between mid-May to mid-October 2023.

During this consultation, we asked you what you liked or disliked about the draft concept plan, and encouraged you to share your favourite play features, any special requests or needs yourself or a member of the community may have, and any feedback about the current playground, such as your favourite play equipment. Thank you for sharing your feedback with us to help inform a final design.

Final Plans for Trust Reserve and Sunningdale Reserve are now available, with construction starting soon.

The construction of Bower Cottages Community Centre play space is now complete. The new play space was officially opened on 29 March, with the Semaphore Park Goodstart Early Learning Centre children.
