A new playground is open for use at Ralph Cameron Oval in Raglan, enhancing recreational opportunities for families and youth in the region.
This new facility has introduced a new bike and scooter track as well as play equipment and better accessibility, all made possible through a Stronger Country Communities Round 5 grant worth $447,581 under the former NSW Government.
Member for Bathurst Paul Toole commented on the project's importance.
"The Stronger Country Communities Fund was all about improving the lives of regional communities, and this project is a perfect example of that mission in action. I'm proud to see that this space will promote active lifestyles and community engagement,” Mr Toole said.
“Spaces like Ralph Cameron Oval turn a residential area into lifelong homes for families that can enjoy these green spaces at their doorsteps.
“Raglan is a great place to live and it is a growing suburb of Bathurst that’s why I am pleased to provide facilities that accommodate for this growth.”
The project involved the construction of a modular multiuse track designed for scooters, bikes, and skaters. This new addition has been strategically located adjacent to the existing community hall car parking area, ensuring easy access for all. The development plan also includes the installation of a new shade shelter and seating areas, alongside significant upgrades to the multi-purpose play equipment.
