WHAT'S PLANNED
We’ve prepared some draft plans to upgrade the playspace at Chittick Park in Seymour, and we want to hear your thoughts on the design.
This playspace is intended to provide accessible and inclusive play opportunities for Seymour residents and visitors, including children, adults and carers with special needs.
The draft design includes:
- an enlarged fenced play area
- a new multiuse play structure
- four new swings including a nest swing and large multi-directional swing
- a spinner
- sand, water and nature play
- sensory and imaginative play
- a paved ball play area
- improvements to the existing shelter to improve safety and surveillance
- additional paths to improve access
- more planting and shade
PROJECT STATUS
A draft concept plan for the project has been prepared and is ready for community input to finalise the design.
