About the Project
Sparta Park (also known as Sparta Street Park) is a 'local' park located in Warilla, nestled between Sparta Street and Arcadia Street. This small green space sits within a residential area and provides a place for nearby residents, families and children to enjoy outdoor recreation close to home.
As part of Council’s ongoing commitment to maintaining safe and welcoming public spaces, Sparta Park is planned for renewal through the 2025/26 Capital Works Program. Recent inspections have identified that the existing play equipment has reached the end of its serviceable life and will need to be removed ahead of the park upgrade.
The proposed renewal will include like-for-like play equipment, along with new inclusive and nature play elements and general site improvements. The upgrades aim to create a refreshed, safe and accessible space that reflects the needs of the local community and supports everyday play and enjoyment.
