Let's name the new park on Hepburn Road

The new park on Hepburn Road is on track for completion in mid-2024. It’s time to give this new space an official name!

We’re proposing…Hepburn Reserve.

This name is relevant, clear and consistent with the names of Manningham’s other local reserves. It aligns with our Naming of Reserves Policy, which states local reserves should be named after the longest road they adjoin. It also aligns with the Geographic Place Names Act 1998 and Official Naming Rules for Places in Victoria 2022.
