New look for beloved local playground

The new Berwick Springs West playground is alive and well, marking a significant upgrade to the beloved lakeside playspace.

Revamped and remodelled, the playground is now equipped with a nature-themed play tower, new slides and swings, a spinner, and climbing equipment.

There are also new shelter areas, complete with a barbecue and picnic setting, as well as new seating areas for the wider family.

Kowan Ward councillor, Shane Taylor, said that “I’m incredibly proud of this project”.

“The previous play space had reached the end of its life, and it was time for a fresh start.

“We reached out to our wonderful community for your ideas, and you delivered.

“The people’s feedback shaped the draft concept, which was refined further with their input to create this fantastic new playground,” he said.

The old drinking fountain has also been replaced, alongside upgraded fencing and a gate for added safety, with new garden beds and new trees to enhance the natural charm of the space.

“Thank you to everyone who contributed during the engagement process, I hope everyone enjoys the new play space,” Cr Taylor said.
