Dwyer Road Reserve Playground in Oaklands Park is a neighbourhood playground that underwent significant upgrades in 2020 as part of the Oaklands Crossing project. This initiative, supported by a $5 million contribution from the Council and $867,500 from the Federal Government, aimed to enhance local connections and stimulate economic growth. The integration of smart technology solutions further enhances the visitor experience at the playground.
The playground features various amenities, including Jacaranda Grove, Wyndham Street, and Kelvin Avenue, providing a safe and enjoyable environment for families and children. Situated within the City of Marion, the Council actively engages with the community through initiatives like the Unsung Heroes Awards and Australian Day Awards. The commitment to excellence in governance and service delivery underscores the Council’s dedication to enhancing residents’ quality of life.
Marion Council’s strategic projects focus on developing services and facilities for the community while promoting environmental sustainability. The City’s sister city relationship with Kokubunji in Japan fosters cultural exchanges and educational opportunities for students. With a strong emphasis on innovation and transparency, the City of Marion continues to evolve to meet the needs of its diverse population and provide quality services for all residents.
