Mount Waverley Reserve Playspace upgrade works underway

We are excited to start works at Mount Waverley Reserve playspace.

We previously asked for your ideas on how we can improve this valued space and shared a draft concept plan for your feedback. Thank you to everyone who contributed your thoughts on the project.

The upgrade works will begin on 26 February 2024, and we anticipate completion June 2024.

Some highlights of the new playspace include:

  • New play unit with slides
  • New triple swing set with basket swing
  • New inclusive carousel
  • New timber log ladder
  • New trampoline
  • Nature play area
  • Shelter with picnic table and dual cooktop barbecue.

Under the Mount Waverley Reserve Masterplan, this playspace upgrade is part of a program of works to be completed over several years, including redevelopments of the oval, sportsground lighting, pavilion and public toilet.

This upgrade is supported by the Victorian Government and Melbourne Water.

To ensure the safety of the community, we will close the playspace during construction and place site fencing around the playspace until the works are completed. The remainder of the park, not impacted by the oval and pavilion redevelopment works, will remain open.

There may be minor traffic disruption during the day when supplies are delivered. We apologise for this inconvenience.

We look forward to opening an exciting new space for the community soon.

Background

In 2022, we sought ideas and feedback from the local community for a new playspace at Mount Waverley Reserve, Mount Waverley.

We incorporated some of the community’s ideas into an exciting draft concept plan, and sought community feedback for it in early 2023.
