Project overview
A renewal of the Lakewood Reserve playground was completed in December 2023 and local community members played a key role in shaping and selecting the playground design.
The renewal of this playground and the funding required was allocated in the 2021-31 Long Term Plan.
The local community provided general feedback about what they wanted to see at their playground which informed three different concept design options. In the second round of engagement, the local community were asked to vote for their favourite of the three designs. The design option selected has its own identity and flavour which reflects the needs and wants of the local area.
