Have your say: Playspaces

The community can now have its say on upgrades to numerous playspaces across the Yarra Ranges.Concept designs have been created for playspaces in Mount Evelyn and Mooroolbark, while designs for spaces in Upwey and Lilydale are still to come.

The Bailey Road Playspace in Mount Evelyn features swings, an embankment slide, climbing area and timber teepee.

Yarra Ranges Council is asking community members to provide feedback on the playspace design and to vote for the colour scheme of the equipment and type of equipment.

The council is renewing the playspace in Wright Avenue, Upwey to improve equipment and make the space a valuable meeting place.

Before Yarra Range Council begins designing the playspace, it is calling on the community to provide insight into what should be improved.

Changes to the Carmen Reserve playspace in Lilydale and Luke Polkinghorne Memorial Reserve Playspace are also open for the community to provide feedback.

To view the proposed changes to all playgrounds and have your say, visit www.yarraranges.vic.gov.au/Council/Engage-Yarra-Ranges.
