Marton Park is a key recreational area for the Sutherland Shire, located in Kurnell. Council is looking to review and update the current masterplan to cater for a renewal of the playground and fitness equipment. Improvements will support active lifestyles now and in the future.

    Feedback received from our community on the draft Masterplan, included concerns around drainage, lighting and the location of the playground. This feedback has helped shape the finalised Masterplan for Marton Park.

    Changes made to the Masterplan based on feedback include:

    • Improvements to drainage at the field and surrounds has been brought forward into the short-term program of work
