The third stage of the major redevelopment of the reserve off McLeans Road has focused on improving the facility’s appeal to younger residents.

The redevelopment includes a performance space, social space with Wi-Fi access, multi-use basketball court and grass embankment in the reserve. LED lighting will also be installed along upgraded paths to help improve access to the reserve and public transport.

Previous stages of the Norris Bank Reserve redevelopment included the provision of a dedicated off-leash dog area and a playground featuring a play tower with slides, water play area and upgraded picnic facilities.

The project received a $600,000 contribution from the state government as part of the Growing Suburbs Fund.
