Ross Park will close from Monday 31 January 2022 until May 2022 while new playground equipment is installed and landscaping works are carried out.
Once complete, Ross Park will include a new play space with all-ability carousel, timber fort and nest swing, accessible toilet, interactive sculpture, covered picnic areas, shade trees and seating.
Adjoining carparks in Rayner Lane and Ballina Street will be unavailable during this temporary closure. Beach access will be maintained through Ross Park.
For other park locations please visit ballina.nsw.gov.au/playgrounds
Undergrounding of the electrical network will also continue along Ballina Street from Monday 31 January 2022.
These works will commence at the intersection of Park Lane and Ballina Street then continue north.
Noise will be present during construction and, at times, in close proximity to businesses. This will include open trenching and concrete saw cutting of existing surfaces.
Access to businesses and properties will be maintained, however access arrangement may at times change. Council will liaise directly with businesses in regards to these changes.
Stage two of the Lennox Village Vision project, from Park Lane to the Central Hub, will commence in March 2022. This stage will include road reconstruction, installation of street furniture and landscaping.
Council apologises for any inconvenience caused and thanks the community for their patience during these works.
Businesses and residents are strongly encouraged to register for emailed project updates at ballina.nsw.gov.au/LennoxVillageVision
