Keep it GREEN, keep it OPEN, make it USEFUL
Council unveils landscape plan for Bathurst’s Centennial Park
After extensive consultation with interest groups and the general community, Bathurst Regional Council resolved on 16th May 2018 to adopt the Centennial Park Scoping Study Consultation Report. This report presented overall community feedback for the park development in three key areas:
Keep it green: vegetated existing vegetated landscape and its enhancement
Keep it open: the value of public space within an urban environment
Make it useful: improve the experience of the current space
Council engaged dsb Landscape Architects to prepare a concept landscape design for Centennial Park that reflected these community views. The design concept includes the following elements:
Consultation area
Concept landscape design improvement
Green
The retaining of all trees within the park with the exception of some that are in poor health
New tree planting to keep the tree lined pedestrian pathways and add Autumn colour
Improved irrigated grass open areas
Open
Keeping the existing shape of the park with intersecting pedestrian pathways
Design that lends the park to a ‘passive’ and an ‘active’ area
Renovation of a cricket pitch including levelling, irrigation and terraced grass seating/viewing areas
Curved Trellis with seating and climbers next to BBQ Area
Winding track with exercise stations
Heritage style smart sensor lighting along pedestrian pathways
Central Gazebo with seating
Heritage style furniture dotted around the park
Formalisation of the pedestrian pathway with heritage style red brick edges
Terraced stairs with incorporated disabled access
Relocated bus stop with improved access
A concept drawing and images for the concept plan is provided in the document library.
Council is seeking community feedback on the concept plan via this site or written submission to:
The General Manager, Bathurst Regional Council, 158 Russell Street or PMB 14, Bathurst NSW 2795
Feedback will close on Friday 11 January 2019 at 4pm
