Eldinhope Green play space upgrade

Council is upgrading the playground at Eldinhope Green in Wahroonga.

About the playground

This playspace is categorised as a local playground. Local playgrounds generally cater for residents within walking distance and are not designed to attract users from much further afield. They are the most common category of playgrounds within the Council and usually do not include facilities such as toilets as they are intended for shorter stays.

Our goal

Community consultation was undertaken to inform the design of the local playground in 2021/2022. This consultation resulted in a variety of differing opinions on inclusions for the upgrade. Council is delivering an inclusive play space based on this feedback.

Eldinhope Green concept plan

The concept design for this local park includes:

  • Play equipment catering for a range of age groups and abilities.
  • Rubber/mulch softfall.
  • Nature play elements.
  • Associated landscaping works.
  • Accessible drinking fountain, picnic setting and bin.
  • Formal and informal seating options.
  • Upgraded accessible path for all abilities from Morris Avenue.
  • Accessible on-street parking bay.

Please note that the final outcome and extent of work may undergo some changes due to funding availability and as the project continues to progress through the construction process.

What's next

The final design has now been handed to Council's Projects Delivery Team who have undertaken the required tendering process.  The project has been awarded and construction is due to commence in February 2024.
