Aldershot Park upgrades
What’s happening
A new barbecue area with shelter, furniture, and a dog water bowl is being built in Aldershot Park.
Why
The old barbecue was worn out and removed in 2024. The previous shelter was too small and not accessible for everyone. The upgrades will better match the all-abilities toilets, playground, and sports areas already in the park. Locals also asked for a water point for dogs.
When
Work will start in the week of 31 March 2025 and should finish by 6 May 2025, depending on the weather.
Who’s doing the work
Council’s Landscape Construction and Building Services Teams.
How much will it cost
$44,000, fully funded by Council’s capital works program.
Community impact
The upgrades will make the park more accessible and enjoyable for everyone, including people with disability and dog owners. Paths will link the new shelter to the toilets and car park.
