Saddle Way Park upgrade

We have an exciting new upgrade planned for Murwillumbah’s Saddle Way Park.

By partnering with the local community, we aim to revitalise and modernise the park to create a recreational space that’s more inclusive of everyone, with better play equipment and park facilities.

The park upgrade will also improve its resilience to future weather events.

Project schedule

• Planning: Early 2024
• Construction: Late 2024

What’s involved

• New play equipment for 2 to 13 year olds
• Scooter loop
• New basket swing
• Nature play
• Accessible drinking fountain
• Picnic table and shelter
• Landscaping and tree planting for natural shade

Why it’s happening

• The existing playground was damaged in a severe weather event in 2022.
• The park’s existing play equipment has reached the end of its useful life.

Benefits to the community 

The new play space will offer a variety of play and social experiences to challenge, excite and promote active and healthy lifestyles. It will be inclusive, supporting everyone to play.

How it’s getting done

Budget: $245,520
