Wollongong Council is planning an inclusive play space for young people and adults with disability. They are seeking community feedback on the concept plan, which expands Stuart Park’s existing playground to incorporate the new features.
The concept for an inclusive play space in Wollongong has been in the planning for some time and is intended to be delivered in two stages. The first stage is currently funded by the Australian Government’s Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Fund, corporate and community donations and Wollongong City Council.
A two-staged approach to construction is proposed, with Stage 1 works planned for June 2021. Additional phased access upgrades in Stuart Park, including toilets, linking paths and parking are planned to occur to support the proposed playground extension. The existing playground in Stuart Park would remain open during works.
To find out more about the proposal or to provide feedback, visit Council’s engagement website by Monday 15 March 2021:
