Progress Reserve Upgrade Stage One

• Project statusCompleted
• Project value$1.4 million

We’ve upgraded Progress Reserve so that everyone can play! 

What we’re doing

As part of the Progress Reserve Masterplan, we completed works to fulfill Stage One of the project. This stage provided a range of play equipment for all ages and abilities and enables facilitation of activities in a safe and inclusive environment, while reflecting the diversity of the Coolaroo community. 

Stage One included a new purpose-built play environment, which includes:   

• a new scooter track
• new covered picnic and BBQ area
• nature play area
• climbing tower
• tunnel play
• junior and senior play areas
• landscaped garden
• tree planting
• connected path network
• irrigated lawn
• new public toilets.

We're currently planning for future upgrades of the reserve. We will keep you informed about future consultation opportunities as we continue working through our planning process. 

Why we’re doing it 

To provide the Coolaroo and broader Hume community with quality recreational open space for all ages and abilities to meet and socialise in an inviting, safe and relaxed environment.
