Project background

Higgins Park Reserve is used for football, cricket and softball with user groups primarily being youth sporting clubs. The existing 30-year-old clubroom had reached the end of its functional or physical life. After critical examination of the built asset’s performance, the Town of Victoria Park decided to renew the asset, rather than create a new asset. While the facility’s basic structure was sound, internal building services such as ablutions, security and kitchen facilities were past a reasonable standard of provision. The completed project has improved access for people with disabilities, increased the size of storage and social areas and upgraded the existing kitchen, changerooms and toilets at Higgins Park.
