An upgrade to the current amenities building at Paine Reserve in Randwick is underway. The new facilities will provide wheelchair access and meet current standards for accessibility, lighting and ventilation. This popular reserve, which comprises of a playground, dog exercise park and sports field, is well used by the community and the current facilities are not meeting community needs.

The new facilities will comprise of:

• Two new change rooms with a shower and toilet in each change room
• Three unisex toilets
• One accessible toilet
• A referee change room
• Plant room for filtration/irrigation equipment
• Storage area for sporting clubs

The design has been created around maintaining some of the existing building where possible. Lighting will be improved by raising and reinstalling a new roof and adding windows, upgraded guttering will be installed to improve drainage, and the addition of an external accessible footpath as well as landscaping works will take place.

Work began in late august and is due to be completed in early December, weather permitting. To read more about the project and see the concept plans, please refer to the Project Page here.
