Help Shape Stan Riley Reserve And BMX Track

A sketch of a family superimposed on a photo of Stan Riley Reserve on the left side, and a BMX bike rider doing a jump on the right side.

Home to Monash's only BMX track, Stan Riley Reserve has helped generations of riders develop their skills and enjoy riding, while also providing much-valued open space in Oakleigh South.

Now it's your chance to help shape its next chapter.

We're developing a concept plan to improve the reserve while keeping its BMX identity.

Working with specialist track designers, we want to know what makes a track fun and challenging for riders.

We also want to hear your ideas for the wider reserve, from landscaping to paths, shade, seating and places to hang out.

Tell us what would make this an even better place for young people, families and people of all ages to enjoy.

How to get involved

Survey: Tell us what makes a track fun and what else you might like to see at the reserve by Sunday 13 December 2026.

Focus group: Register your interest for our track design focus group on Shape Monash by Wednesday 4 November 2026.

What happens next

Your feedback will help inform the locations and features in the final concept plan, along with available space, safety requirements and ongoing maintenance needs.

The final concept will be shared at a future Council meeting.

We're planning the design now, but building the upgrades will depend on future funding and Council approval.
