Improving Arthur Street Reserve and Playground, Surry Hills

Project Status: Planned

Why we’re doing this

We’ve developed a design for the park based on your feedback.

What we’re doing

The upgrade includes:

  • relocating the playground to maximise space and improve safety
  • a new play structure with steps for toddlers, a slide, deck platform, firepole, climbing challenge and new swing
  • a nature play area with timber balance beams, play decks and poles
  • retaining existing mature trees and new plant barrier hedges
  • removing a small tree which is impacting the growth of an existing mature tree
  • a new community space with more seats and tables
  • a new water bubbler with dog bowl.

The reserve and playground will be closed during the upgrade.
