Gisborne Fields Landscape Plan implementation

Gisborne Fields Landscape Plan 2018 is guiding the staged development of the three acres of land located in the Gisborne Fields Estate into a park for the local community.

The first stages of the eight-stage landscape plan have been completed, these included the installation of playground equipment (in 2019), and the development of shared pathway around the reserve, and some intersecting pathways (in 2020). 

The most recent stages have seen the development of a new picnic shelter and supporting facilities such as a BBQ, picnic tables, bike rails and a drinking fountain (in 2022) as well as surface mounding, tree planting, casual football goal posts, park furniture and perimeter bollards (in 2023).

Stage 5 of the landscape plan was completed in November 2024, delivering an expansion of the existing play space and some further tree planting and low-level vegetation.

Stages 6, 7 and 8 are currently not funded for implementation, however like the previous stages, will be subject to future Council funding.
