Upgrade works for Strickland Park, Chippendale
The park and playground will be improved for everyone to enjoy.
Project Status: Completed
Work started in August 2020 and was completed in December 2020.
What we’re doing
Upgrades that will include:
- a fenced playground with a slide, nest swing, ladder and play panel
- garden planting with steppers to provide a sensory play experience
- plenty of new bench seats, a picnic table and feature seating wall
- retaining the existing trees and adding more plants and grasses.
Impacts and disruptions
The park and playground will be closed during the works. The nearest playgrounds are:
- Vine Street Playground, Thomas Street, Darlington
- Peace Park Playground, Myrtle Street, Chippendale
- Redfern Community Centre Playground, Hugo Street, Redfern.
We will take steps to minimise other impacts. However, there will be some machinery noise and dust. Parking may be impacted due to access requirements for construction materials and equipment.
