The $150,000 facility, nestled away in a leafy part of Adamstown, was opened last week as part of the city's annual playground replacement program.
Located in a reserve also known as Laneway Park, the new playground includes an extra wide stainless-steel slide, clock, musical chimes, mountain ramp, rope net climber and double swings.
The design, which was selected by the community, is versatile enough to suit toddlers up to primary school-aged children and makes for a great new addition to the suburb.
Fletcher Street Reserve takes the total number of playgrounds replaced by the City in the past four years to 15 across 11 different suburbs, equating to more than $5 million worth of fun new facilities for the community.
Under the annual renewal scheme, the City's Parks and Projects teams completely overhaul outdated equipment, replacing them with more modern materials that meet rising standards and service expectations.
The opening follows the recent delivery of the South Stockton Active Hub, the Cressington Way playground in Wallsend and last year's opening of Blackbutt's Richley Reserve adventure playground. We look forward to rolling out more of these wonderful facilities.
