Ray Bastin Reserve
Belinda WILSON (Narre Warren North) (16:32): I recently visited a very exciting new infrastructure project in my electorate at the Ray Bastin Reserve in Narre Warren to announce the start of a $3.1 million redevelopment project for the playground and the surrounding area. This is a joint effort between the Victorian government and the City of Casey which aims at revitalising the reserve to provide new amenities for our local community. The redevelopment will also include a state-of-the-art inclusive playground designed for children of all abilities. It will upgrade the existing skate park and BMX track, offering modern facilities for youth. It will have a new barbecue facility, shelter and seating for rest stops to encourage social gatherings. It will have a public art installation and landscape planting, enhancing the reserve’s aesthetic appeal. These upgrades will transform Ray Bastin Reserve into a vibrant hub of recreation and social connection, providing lots of revitalisation spaces for outdoor activities and family fun.
