Bridges Hill Park Playground and Access Improvement Works - Preliminary Concept Plan

Cessnock City Council is committed to ensuring residents and visitors have access to excellent parks and playgrounds.

Bridges Hill Park and Convent Hill provide the local community with a valued open green space, wooded bushland and playground in a peaceful neighbourhood area. The park is enjoyed by many different people including residents, school children, active fitness groups and recreational walkers.

It is anticipated the playground and access improvements works will be delivered in stages with grant funding. Council has successfully secured a grant for the first stage works and is also partnering with the Cessnock Wine Country Lions Club and the Rotary Club of Cessnock to deliver key components of the playground.

In March 2017, Council undertook consultation with local children from Cessnock West and St Patrick’s Public Schools and Cessnock and Mount View High Schools to seek ideas and suggestions. Your feedback has helped us shape the concept plan and we are now seeking further input to refine the plans.

The proposed design is on exhibition until 13 October 2017 and we would like to hear your comments.
