In exciting news for Buxton and the wider community, works on the Telopea Park Youth Zone have been completed, with the space now open for use.
Previous community input had helped us ensure the Telopea Park Master Plan - adopted in 2019 - included features and facilities the Buxton community wanted, such as a dedicated space for older children and youth.
In spring 2021, we consulted with the Buxton community again - about the draft design for a local level Youth Zone.
The proposed Youth Zone - a space for older kids and teens - included facilities for:
skating, scooting and bike riding
practicing netball and basketball
relaxing on comfy benches
charging devices
parking a bike, and more.
Thanks to community feedback we were able to update the Youth Zone design - check out the updated design and Engagement Snapshot under the "Documents" tab.
With construction now complete, the space is open for use.
Telopea Park Youth Zone was funded through the Australian Government Bushfire Recovery Fund.
