Joe Hyam Reserve, North Nowra - Update

Significant improvements are on the horizon for Joe Hyam Reserve in North Nowra, as plans are underway to create a more family friendly community space.

Joe Hyam Reserve, popular for its natural beauty and recreational areas, is the focus of a playground replacement project aimed at enhancing the experience for families and the wider community.

The new and improved facilities will provide a safe and enjoyable space for families to come together. The transformation of Joe Hyam Reserve is a collaborative effort involving Council, the community, and the support of the NSW Stronger Country Communities Fund, with the shared goal of making North Nowra an even better place to live.

The project is funded with a $318,000 budget, entirely sourced from a grant provided by the NSW Stronger Country Communities Fund Round 5, a government initiative designed to enhance regional and rural communities in NSW.

The contract for the playground replacement project has been awarded to CRS Creative Recreation Solutions, chosen for their expertise and commitment to ensuring the playground replacement's success.

Construction is scheduled to commence in February 2024, with the project anticipated to be completed by April 2024.
