What impacts can I expect during construction?

    The playspace at Hampshire Reserve will need to close during demolition and construction of the new playground. We will notify impacted households before construction starts.

    While the reserve is closed, you can visit:

    • Windella Playspace, Doncaster (about 400 metres away)
    • Coolabah Reserve, Doncaster (about 400 metres away)

    Nearby residents and visitors may notice:

    • construction noise
    • construction vehicles in the area
    • reduced on-street parking.

    We’ll work to minimise these impacts wherever possible.
