Casey Community Recreation Park now open

The new Community Recreation Park in Casey is now open.

The park is located between Plimsoll Drive and Yeend Avenue.

The park is designed to contribute to the health and wellbeing of the community. It includes equipment and facilities for the whole community to get active outdoors.

The play equipment has an emphasis on playing in nature. It includes equipment for all abilities. There are different areas for children to climb, hang, balance and explore. There is a forest ant springer for smaller children and a basket swing.

Sandstone walls add a natural textural element to the space and provide further opportunities for balance and play. There are also plenty of benches around the space where parents can sit while supervising their children.

Other new equipment includes:

• a multi-purpose court for different sports

• a cricket net

• a flying fox.

There are also shade structures, a barbecue and a picnic area for family or community gatherings. There are plenty of grassy areas for play and recreation.

Accessible toilet facilities are available, as well as additional parking spaces including one accessible space. The surfaces have been upgraded and lighting has been installed. A non-verbal signage board clearly marks the space.

The updated park space is next to Casey Dog Park. Together, the area is the perfect spot for local families to exercise, play and socialise.
