Project Update
The master plan was endorsed at the Council Meeting on Tuesday 20 August, following extensive community consultation.
The VR Michael Reserve Master Plan describes short, medium and long-term improvements proposed for the reserve. These upgrades will improve the functionality and accessibility of the reserve and create a welcoming and enjoyable space for all.
We developed the plan after listening to ideas and feedback from the community and other groups.
The master plan includes a range of recommendations, including:
- Lighting and wayfinding signage
- Additional car park bays through the extension of the main carpark
- Improvement of accessibility for Bocce Social Club users
- Relocation of the toilet block
- Relocation and upgrade of the playground, along with the addition of a new nature play area
- Fenced unstructured dog off-leash area
- Landscaping Improvements
- Outdoor gathering spaces
- Diverse informal recreation facilities such as a basketball half-court, table tennis tables, skate features, bouldering wall and fitness stations.
