Stage 1 is nearing completion. Works delivered so far include road, kerb and parking improvements to High St and Eversley St, drainage improvements, new footpaths throughout the Precinct and refurbishment of existing rotundas and other site civil works.

Commencement of Stage 2 works including earthworks in preparation for the multi-sport court and playspace construction, and connecting footpath works.

A Landscape Architect has been appointed to the project and detailed design plans are progressing well. Community consultation will help to inform the design which is being developed in line with the 2019 Precinct Masterplan.
