Gordon Street Recreation Reserve Redevelopment Update

Ararat Rural City Council are thrilled to announce that the Gordon Street Recreation Reserve Redevelopment is now entering its final stages, bringing us one step closer to a state-of-the-art facility for our community to enjoy.

Ararat Rural City Council CEO, Dr Tim Harrison emphasizes, “The completion of the pavilion building and lighting installation marks significant progress in our commitment to enhancing recreational opportunities for everyone.”

The pavilion building works have been completed, along with all the lighting installation works. Currently, works are underway concerning the drainage and irrigation on the soccer pitch, which is expected to be completed in the coming week. Following this, seeding of the fields will take place.

Boundary fencing of the AFL/Cricket Oval and the Soccer Pitches will be the final works to be carried out. Council’s operations staff will complete the installation of the Little Athletics infrastructure with a purpose made high jump cover being fabricated in house.

The facility’s usage is set to kick off in the second term, with an official opening date yet to be determined. We can’t wait to see the community come together to enjoy this fantastic space!

Get ready to embrace a new era of recreation and community engagement with Ararat Rural City Council!
