Dover St Reserve Opening

Published 18th November 2022

Dover Street Reserve is open to the community!

The newly upgrades Dover Street Reserve is now open to the community!

This project included:

  • Provision of flood protection for current and future residents.
  • Development of an open space to support the health and wellbeing of residents.
  • Provision of an updated play space to replace the existing playground located at Rushworth Reserve (which has reached the end of its useful life)
  • Closing off a portion of Anson Street to extend the useable open space with Rushworth Reserve.

The first round of community engagement for this project occurred on Saturday 1 September 2018 on site at Dover Street in Blair Athol. There was good participation from the local community and some valuable ideas shared - we appreciate those who gave time and input into the project. This information helped the design team in preparing plans for the Dover Street Reserve.
