Buttenshaw Park upgrade

Buttenshaw Park Youth Park now open!

We are pleased to announce that the new youth focussed play space at Buttenshaw Park, Springwood, is now open.

The design of the new youth-focused space, shaped by community consultation, maximises the challenging sloping topography of the park and provides children and young adults with an exciting, high-energy space and a selection of adventure equipment, including:

• a double flying fox and group swing

• a unique, customised youth focused climbing and hang out structure,

• a climbing/bouldering wall, and

• a ping-pong table

The upgrades also include new seating, shelters, water bubbler, bike racks, sympathetic landscaping and a new footpath which links the play space with the wider park.

As we have communicated previously, to ensure the majority of the upgrade work could be delivered on time and within budget, the pump track that was initially part of the design plans was not able to be constructed as part of this project.

We will continue to investigate grant opportunities to deliver this component at a later time.

This project is funded under the Western Parkland City Liveability Program, which is part of the Western Sydney City Deal (WSCD). The WSCD is a 20 year-agreement between Australian and NSW governments, and the eight local Councils of the Western Parkland City.
