New Playspace at David Woods Oval
Excitement is building as construction on the playspace in East Bowral, located at David Wood Playing Fields, progresses. The highlight of the playground is the newly completed pump track, which has been carefully turfed and is currently awaiting line marking.
The majority of the concreting works will be finalised this week, including a learn to ride area for children. Landscaping has also begun, with over 2,000 plants set to be incorporated into the space, enhancing the natural beauty of the area. Over the coming weeks, new all accessible play equipment will be installed thanks to the generous support from The 4k. Following the arrival play equipment and picnic shelters, rubber softfall will be installed and mulching undertaken for a safe and enjoyable environment.
The playspace remains on track to be opened in late June, subject to weather.
