Reserve Consultation

Tarturninthi is adjacent to Trowbridge Avenue Reserve.

A reserve upgrade is planned for Trowbridge / Tarturninthi Reserves, Mitchell Park next financial year 2023/24. A draft concept plan was developed for community feedback. Consultation has concluded. Details on findings are available in the consultation report.

The project includes a new playground for a range of ages and encourages people to explore, play and enjoy nature. The existing play space will be removed, and the existing basketball court will be retained in the current location.

Key elements of the design include:

New playground including swing, slide, nature play (option for either carousel or trampoline)
Fitness & mindfulness walking loop
New shelter and picnic setting
Kickabout space
Landscaping including biodiversity plantings and natural shade
Pathway connections
