Construction of the new Cockatoo BMX track is well underway, with works set to be completed this month.
The Alma Treloar Reserve BMX pump track and major upgrade to the existing skate park will turn the reserve into a district-level facility for all to enjoy.
The $350,000 project is fully funded by Cardinia Shire Council and comes after extensive engagement with the local community through the development and adoption of the Alma Treloar Masterplan.
Through the consultation, it was made clear to the council that the installation of a BMX track and the enhancement of the skate area were high priorities for many community members.
After years of anticipation, the BMX pump track will be up and running in March, followed by the skate park’s completion in April with weather permitting.
