Archibold Park at Forresters Beach has a whole new look, thanks to $150,000 in State Government funding.
Parliamentary Secretary for the Central Coast and Member for Terrigal, Adam Crouch, said the Forresters Beach community was home to hundreds of families.
“When doorknocking in nearby streets in 2019, the most common feedback I received was the need for new play equipment at Archibold Park,” Crouch said.
“A full makeover of the previously dilapidated Archibold Park is now complete and I congratulate Council staff for getting on with the job and delivering this project.
“COVID-19 restrictions being removed means local families can get out and enjoy the fantastic new playground, which includes play equipment, a flying-fox, softfall surfacing, pathways and park furniture.”
Central Coast Council Mayor, Lisa Matthews, said the playspace upgrade at Forresters Beach had been made possible in partnership with the State Government.
“This NSW Government funding has enabled Council to replace the current aging playspace at Archibold Park, and provide residents with a new, safe and engaging playspace for the local community to come together,” Cr Matthews said.
The $150,000 in funding was from the State Government’s Stronger Communities Fund.
