  The City is progressing with the improvements to Carrington Park. To date the following work has been completed:
  

  • All concrete paths and kerbs.
  • All fencing.
  • New double gate system for dogs.
  • Irrigation reinstatement.
  • Drink fountain.

  
  

  The following works are still in progress and scheduled for completion by the week ending 14 September:

  
  

  • Basketball half court upgrade.
  • Landscaping.
  • Turf installation.
  • Installation of dog bows to the drink fountain.

  
  

  All major works are scheduled for completion by the week ending 14 September, however the new turf in the dog section will need some time to allow the grass to set root in the ground before opening up, this may take a further two to three weeks dependent on the weather.
