About the project
We are planning for an upgrade at Heritage Reserve as part of Frankston City Council's Play Strategy 2021.
Heritage Reserve is located at Edinburgh Drive, Skye with pedestrian entry points from Heritage Drive, Edinburgh Drive and Balinga Drive.
The proposed upgrade to the play space will aim to provide a broader range of play elements, improved access and inclusion.
The upgrade will also include more tree planting and improved landscaping.
Construction works are expected to begin in late 2025 and be completed by early 2026.
What upgrades are proposed?
The Play Strategy outlines a range of service levels for play spaces across the municipality which guide the features and facilities that can be included in each space.
Heritage Reserve is identified as a local major play space which is intended to service the immediate local area (400m walking catchment) for regular short-term stays (up to an hour).
As a local major play space with a shorter stay time, the upgrade will provide for a range of ages with a variety of physical play opportunities and does not include public bathrooms or BBQs.
The proposed upgrade includes:
- Refurbishment of the existing play structure with new features
- Swings including a basket swing
- Flying saucer
- Half-sized multiuse court (including netball and basketball hoops)
- Picnic Shelter
- Picnic Setting
- Bench Seats
- Associated landscaping works and tree planting
We invite you to review our concept plan below, and to share your feedback via our short survey. We understand that the community highly values its play spaces, and we appreciate the time taken to share your thoughts with us!
