Ravenswood Play Space and Toilets


Timing and costings

Project type Community
Completion timeframe (following investment) 1 - 2 years
Cost estimate $650,000

Outcome

An activated and accessible community recreation space that encourages longer visits, inclusive play and greater opportunities to create a walkable environment.

Overview

Ravenswood is a popular local destination for recreation, walking and family activities.

While the site has established shade, the current lack of essential facilities, absence of public toilets, and limited inclusive play opportunities reduce the length of time families and visitors can comfortably enjoy the area.

This project will allow the area to be well landscaped, deliver new amenities and upgrade the existing play space to create a more functional, inclusive and welcoming community destination. The proposed works include:

  • Construction of new public toilet facilities.
  • New play space with equipment that caters to a range of ages and abilities.
  • Accessible pathways and supporting infrastructure to improve connectivity and inclusion.
  • Landscaping enhancements to complement the existing park environment.

Project benefits

  • Increased community use and activation of much-loved community assets.
  • Improved accessibility and inclusive recreation opportunities for people of all abilities.
  • Longer visitor stays supported by essential public amenities.
  • A more attractive and functional public open space that supports community wellbeing and active lifestyles.
