Waverley Council will upgrading and improving the safety of the playground in Marlborough Reserve. Construction is expected to start in Mid-February 2021 and be completed in May 2021, weather permitting.

The Marlborough Reserve Playground upgrade includes:

• Demolition of existing playground and installing new playground equipment, rubber softfall and natural and imaginative play spaces;
• Installing new gardenbeds and trees including an advanced 4.5m high Fig tree and additional trees to replace the loss of the large Fig;
• Installing new park furniture; and
• Improving pedestrian access into the playground.

During this time, the footprint of the works will be fenced off to the public. We expect there will be construction noise however, we will make every effort to minimise the inconvenience to you by ensuring that no machines or loud works occur prior to 7:30am. Expected work hours and times will be 7am – 5pm Monday – Friday (Saturdays if required 8am – 1pm).

The project is being funded through Waverley Council’s Capital Works Program and a NSW Government Stronger Communities Grant.
