Big improvements proposed for Bosworth Road dog park

An upgrade to the off-leash dog park at Bosworth Road Recreation Reserve is being planned, thanks to $100,000 funding from the Victorian Government’s New and Upgraded Dog Parks – Round 2 Program.

This project will transform the existing space into a welcoming, fun, and accessible destination for dogs and their humans to enjoy together.

The proposed works will include:

  • Drinking water for both dogs and their owners
  • Activity zones with agility elements and space to run, play, and explore
  • Improved self-closing gates and accessible paths
  • Picnic shelter with seating for shade and weather protection
  • New trees and groundcover planting to create a greener, cooler space

These upgrades are designed to encourage social connection, outdoor activity, and a stronger sense of community - all while giving our four-legged friends a place to thrive.

A concept design is now available for feedback.
