A new slide has been installed at the Woods Point Playground and is now ready for children and families to enjoy. Council also listened to feedback from the community and has undertaken a full town sweep of Woods Point to respond to customer requests.
The project was a joint effort from Mansfield Shire Council and the Woods Point Progress Association (WPPA).
Works included installation of a new slide by contractor Imagination Play, along with timber edging and soft fall mulch.
Mayor Cr James Tehan said he is pleased to see these works completed.
“This is a fantastic upgrade for the Woods Point Playground that we hope the community can enjoy,” he said.
“Council has listened to community feedback and appreciates the initiative shown by the Woods Point Progress Association in bringing the playground project to Council.”
“Public open space and playgroups is an important aspect to community health and wellbeing and Council was happy to assist with this project. “
While the slide was being installed, Council’s Field Services Team carried out a wide range of works including a full township sweep of Woods Point, filling potholes, straightening and replacing guide posts, trimming low branches and cleaning the bridge deck.
