We are excited to announce that work is complete and the renewed playground at Emu Park is open for use!

We'd like to thank the community for their patience as while we delivered these wonderful upgrades.

Timothy Reserve, on the Coast to Vines and Christie Creek trails located approximately 300m from Emu Park on Marita Street, will be designed as a resting spot for those travelling through on the Coast to Vines and the Christie Creek Linear Park trails.

The playground equipment and courts will be removed, the picnic shelter and seating will be renewed and new sitting logs and boulders will be installed. There will also be new planting in the area.

Nearby Emu Park on Marita Street, will be upgraded to include new playground equipment and other exciting new elements including a slide and nest swing, a multi-use court with basketball, netball and four square, new shelter and picnic setting.

Following community engagement on the draft concept plan, the following changes to the design for Emu Park were made:

• addition of toddler swing
• addition of emu rocker
• improved accessibility to basket swing.

To allow room in the budget for the above changes, the Emu play sculpture was removed from the design.

The play equipment has been moved out from under the existing tree canopy and will have shade in the future as the new trees grow. Click here to view the final concept plan for Emu Park.
