Cardinia Shire Council is planning improvements to three outdoor spaces in Pakenham, making them more enjoyable, accessible and suited to the needs of our growing community.
Council is planning exciting upgrades to some of our popular outdoor spaces including:
- Outdoor exercise stations along Heritage Springs Linear Reserve:
There are currently six outdoor exercise equipment stations dotted along the shared path, between Primary Springs Primary School and Winneke Way.
- The Flying Fox at Toomuc Creek Linear Reserve:
Toomuc Creek Linear Reserve runs along Toomuc Creek between Princes Highway and Princes Freeway. A concrete shared path runs along both sides of the creek. The flying fox for renewal is located near the intersection of Growler Street and Victory Drive.
- Possum Place playground:
This playground is part of the Heritage Springs Linear Park (at western end) accessible from Sundew Crescent, Possum Place and Winneke Way, Pakenham. It has basic play equipment: slides, swings (including toddler swing), and a climbing frame. It is a few metres walk to the Flying Fox along Toomuc Reserve. Upgrades are pending future budget approval.
Community members are encouraged to share how they currently use the facilities and suggest improvements they'd like to see. Feedback gathered during the consultation will inform the design process and ensure the renewed assets meet the needs of the growing community.
