What’s happening?

We’re seeking your feedback on the concept plan for the Burgundy Reserve playspace upgrade.

Following our initial consultation in August 2024, we’ve created an updated concept plan focused on the new playground and picnic area based on your feedback. We now invite your input to help finalise the design. The proposal includes:

  • a fully enclosed and relocated playground with new play equipment
  • new park furniture
  • new shade sails
  • new tree and garden bed planting
  • a new shelter
  • public toilet facilities
  • drinking fountain
  • picnic area with BBQ
  • new shared pathways, including around the oval.

Burgundy Reserve is a much-loved

Burgundy Reserve is a much-loved community space visited by dog owners, cyclists, walkers and families. This upgrade will be funded by our Capital Works Program together with a $400,000 grant from the Victorian Government’s New Upgraded Dog Parks Program.

Why is it needed?

The last major upgrade at Burgundy Reserve was over 20 years ago and the current play equipment has reached the end of its useful life. This project presents a valuable opportunity to refresh the playspace and surrounding reserve. The upgrade is part of our Parks Improvement Program and will be delivered under our capital works program.

When is it happening?

Community feedback on the concept plan is open until Monday 26 May 2025. The final design will be prepared by July/August 2025, with construction set to begin later in the year.

    Thank you to everyone who provided feedback on the proposed upgrade at Burgundy Reserve.

    Your feedback and ideas will help inform the final designs for this reserve.

    Summary of key findings:

    • Most people who completed our survey live in the local area and use the reserve very often, primarily for exercise.
    • 61% of respondents support the proposal and the project will continue.
    • The main reason for support was an upgrade of the existing facilities and incidental benefits such as better year-round use and safety.
    • There were many great ideas to improve the concept plan and the playground, these will be considered against site conditions and budget availability to determine what can be included in the final design.
    • There were some requests to change the location of proposed infrastructure. This will be reviewed as we develop the plan, there are several site restrictions such as slope, easements and playing field requirements that may limit the potential for major changes.

    Next steps

    • We will finalise the concept plan and develop a playground design based on our respondents’ feedback.
    • We will provide a project progress update in early 2025 and to test the playground design.
