The new equipment includes a climbing wall and spiderweb at Woodvale Park in Mill Park, a basketball court at Trinity Park in South Morang and a spiral slide for young thrill-seekers at Rodger Court Park in Bundoora.
Whittlesea chair administrator Lydia Wilson said that the newly-upgraded parks and playgrounds are part of council’s annual program to breathe new life into the city’s outdoor spaces.
“As our city grows, it’s more important than ever that our outdoor areas are well-planned, vibrant and inviting spaces that meet the needs of our diverse community,” Ms Wilson said.
“We’re committed to building high-quality parks and playgrounds so that our community can stay active and socially connected close to home.”
Newly-upgraded parks and playgrounds include Rodger Court Park in Bundoora, Rosemary Park in Lalor, Findon Recreation Reserve Park in Mill Park, Woodvale Park in Mill Park, Jardier Park in South Morang, Treeview Drive Park in South Morang, Trinity Parkin South Morang and Stonehaven Drive Park in Thomastown.
