Jim Devine Field car park upgrade

Council is upgrading the eastern car park at Jim Devine Field to make it more flood-resilient and easier for everyone to access the clubhouse and sports fields. The work includes a new asphalt surface, connecting footpaths, and more trees for better shade and comfort.

Project schedule

Planning: Mid 2024
Construction: 10 September 2025 to late November 2025, weather permitting

What’s involved

New asphalt car park with an upgraded entrance from Mooball Street
Connecting pathways
Additional accessible parking space in the western car park
New sandstone blocks to restrict vehicle access and provide informal seating
Returfing of damaged areas
Tree planting along Mooball Street

Why it’s happening

Severe weather and flooding in 2022 caused substantial damage to the internal access road and carpark, severely damaging the road surface and causing road subsidence.
