Alma Park East - Multipurpose Courts Upgrade Project

The existing facility was constructed in 2010 across Council managed and St Mary’s Parish owned land. It includes two full-sized multipurpose courts equipped with basketball towers, futsal and small ball line markings, and sleeves for volleyball nets.

The courts are currently in poor condition due to a lack of regular maintenance and ongoing vehicle access, which has damaged the court surface. As a result, they now present safety risks to users. These courts offer valuable opportunities for informal participation in recreation and physical activity, with limited options to replicate such a facility elsewhere in the municipality. Upgrading the courts is essential to ensure continued use at this location and to address the current safety concerns stemming from their deteriorated condition.

During construction:

• The courts will not be accessible to the public (including the adjoining St Mary’s Parish and School) during the construction period.
• Protective fencing will be installed around the works zone to ensure safety.
• A portion of the car park located to the east of the courts may be temporarily closed to facilitate construction activities.
• Construction works and vehicle access will be coordinated closely with the Parish and school to minimise disruption.
• Traffic management is anticipated to manage construction vehicle access and movements around the school access point on Westbury Street.

• Resurfaced multipurpose hard courts, including netball, basketball, volleyball, futsal and pickleball with line markings.
• Bollards to be installed to restrict vehicle access.
