Shoalhaven Community invited to comment on playground upgrades

January 20, 2021

Shoalhaven City Council is inviting residents and visitors to provide input on playground upgrade requirements at Tilbury Reserve, Culburra Beach and Lions Park Playground, Erowal Bay.

Both Tilbury Reserve and Lions Park Playground are due for replacement and Council would like to know how residents and visitors currently use the facilities, and what kind of playground equipment community members would like to see as part of the playground replacement.

Mayor Amanda Findley is delighted that both communities will benefit from improved playground equipment and highlights “Culburra Beach and Erowal Bay are growth areas for locals as well as being important locations for tourists. Tilbury Cove Reserve is located close to Penguin Head Lookout and has stunning views of Culburra Beach with lovely large shade trees close to the playground.

“The Erowal Bay village in Jervis Bay is centrally located to the area's white sand beaches and scenic Booderee National Park.”

Lions Park Playground, located on Naval Parade Erowal Bay, currently includes climbing structures and a slide.

At Penguins Head Road, Culburra Beach, in addition to replacing the climbing structure, slide, hanging bars and swing set, Council is proposing a new shade structure and footpath to increase accessibility to the play equipment.

Community members can complete the online surveys by 14th February via the following links;
