Beatty Park Reserve Upgrade
This consultation is now closed.
The City of Vincent is seeking community feedback on new concept designs for Beatty Park Reserve Playground. Tell us which one you prefer!
Background
Constructed in 2005, the playground at Beatty Park Reserve in North Perth has been well-used over the years but is in need of a refresh.
In September and October 2024, we asked for feedback on the play elements people would like to see in a new playground at Beatty Park Reserve.
Community told us they wanted slides, swings, monkey bars and tunnels. They also liked the flying foxes and spinning equipment they’d seen at other playgrounds.
This project is part of the City's playground renewal program and is funded through the 2024/25 Capital Works Budget.
Project details
There are two design proposals, one has full rubber softfall (Option One) and one has a combination of rubber softfall and sand softfall (Option Two). You will find the equipment descriptions for each in the Document library to the right of this page. Please note, all proposed colour palettes are indicative only and the final installation may differ.
Option One
This design proposes natural bush-themed features and colour palette. Rubber soft fall covers the entire play area, and re-positioned seating allows for better supervision.
The unique ‘Tropicana bungalo’ is a key attraction, with lots of scope for imaginary play, plus:
- multiplay unit
- sky rail (6m)
- balance trail
- rocker
- double swing (infant and strap seat)
It is suitable for ages 0-12, has 27 activities and a capacity of 60+.
Option Two
This design proposes a coastal bush theme with colours and finishes to match. Predominantly sand softfall with rubber wear pads connecting to the paths and between activities.
The main attraction is the 25m ‘Sky rider’, providing dynamic play for teenagers as requested in feedback, plus:
- Premium multiplay unit (tunnel, pole, monkey bar, spider web, turbo slide, staircase, story panel, sand play zone etc.).
- Triple swing (nest, infant and strap seats).
- Lorikeet rocker.
It is suitable for ages 0-12, has 18 activities and a capacity of 50+.
Additional Beatty Park Reserve Upgrade Information - A new toilet block will be installed in 2025/26 as part of this upgrade. Following earlier consultation, it will be sited at location 2 - see the Maps section to the right of this page.
