Concept Design – Ferntree Reserve Playground, Engadine

Consultation period: 24 February to 25 March 2025

After consultation with our local community, Council is excited to provide an update on the playground renewal at Ferntree Reserve, Engadine.

A proposed concept design has been developed, with many elements of the design informed by community feedback.

The proposed concept design includes:

• A new playground with slides, swings, carousel and climbing equipment
• Two play areas to cater for different age groups
• Accessible play elements for mobility impaired/wheelchair users, including ramp to the junior play tower, accessible carousel and play panels
• Loop path for bikes/scooters
• Gate on the corner of Ridge Road and Edgecliff Place
• New shade structure
• Combination of mulch, synthetic grass and rubber softfall
• New amenities including BBQs, picnic tables, seating, drinking fountain and rubbish bins.
