Charlotte Park Playground Renewal

About the project

Townsville City Council is undertaking early planning for the playground renewal at Charlotte Park, Aitkenvale and is seeking community input to co-design the renewal.

Charlotte Park represents a vital community asset intended to gather everyone in a fun, welcoming and confortable environment. A re-design of the current playground layout could improve the parks' function and amenity.

While any improvements to the playground are not yet part of Council's Capital Works Program for construction, community feedback will help determine the preference for the repacement playground equipment. It will also help support potential future grant applications and funding opportunities.
