Berwick Waters Tree Walk Park wins industry award

Berwick Waters Tree Walk Park has won the Social Infrastructure / Community Infrastructure Award at the Urban Development Institute of Australia (UDIA) Victoria Awards for Excellence.

Completed in April 2025, Tree Walk Park by Frasers Property Australia and Mondous Property is part of a national network of more than 45 Livvi’s Place inclusive playspaces across Australia, a list that includes the new Silo Park at Frasers Property’s Five Farms community nearby.

The parks are designed in partnership with the Touched by Olivia Foundation, a non-profit organisation whose mission is to improve the well-being of individuals and communities through inclusion and belonging.

Frasers Property Australia general manager Development Victoria Sarah Bloom said the UDIA award is a testament to the collaboration of all project partners.

“Helping our residents establish community connections with nature is vital to what we do. Tree Walk Park is a special, inclusive and beautiful space for everyone to meet, play and feel a true sense of belonging,” she said.

“This wonderful community amenity is the result of collaboration between Frasers Property, our landscape architects Tract, the City of Casey, the Touched by Olivia Foundation, our local community and other stakeholders, and we thank everyone for their contribution to Tree Walk Park.”

Tree Walk Park is a part of the 50ha of open space planned for Berwick Waters, along with 9km of walking paths and bike trails.

It complements Grand Prix Park in the College Green sector of Berwick Waters — with its kids racing track, mini trampolines, zipline and play tower — as an additional place for family fun and fresh air.

Berwick Waters, located in Clyde North, will eventually be home to approximately 2,500 households.
