Byron Council is starting work on a $850,000 upgrade of Heritage Park at Mullumbimby.
Staff say, ‘The work, which was identified in the Heritage Park Landscape Masterplan, includes a new pathway and boardwalk, installing a new piece of play equipment for older children designed to test their climbing skills and adding more nature and imaginative play features’.
‘Additional seating will also be installed, and the existing shelter will be refurbished.
The section of the park along Mill Street will be closed off and turned into an off-lead dog area.
‘It is currently an unofficial carpark, but the area will be re-turfed, and the only traffic will be that of dogs and their owners’.
Information about the project is on Council’s website.
