Plans are in the works to turn a corner section of Bedser Street in Macgregor into a recreational park for the whole family.
The new green space will give residents a beautiful and spacious area for enjoying outdoor activities, picnics, sports, and other community events.
The concept plan is currently on public exhibition and will need feedback from the locals before the actual development. Earlier, a public consultation was undertaken in October 2021, where the planners learned that residents want these facilities to be included in Bedser Street Park:
- bin enclosures
- exercise equipment
- imaginative and informal play nodes
- kick-around space
- picnic facilities
- pedestrian pathways
- seating
- shade trees
Locals may submit their inputs online. The public exhibition will run until Monday, 2 May 2022.
Per the Council, “Bedser Street Park will contribute to Council’s commitment to creating new lifestyle and leisure opportunities by enhancing the park network to respond to a growing and changing Brisbane. The creation of the local recreation park is just one of the many ways the Council is growing your Brisbane lifestyle.”
