Agett Park Upgrade

The Town of Claremont is proposing to upgrade Agett Park, which is the small green space located on the corner of Agett Road and Bay Road. This project is one of many the Town has identified as being worthy of inclusion in its “Infrastructure Renewal Programme 2006 – 2010”.

The Infrastructure Renewal Programme is a commitment to the future by the Town which sets out a five years plus plan to progressively implement a range of practical and achievable projects aimed at repairing and upgrading streets, parks and community facilities throughout the municipality over the coming years, mainly under the following three categories:

• upgrading parks and reserves;
• improving pedestrian links to activity centres and railway stations and;
• improving streetscapes, road surfaces, drainage and the management of traffic.

It is proposed to upgrade Agett Park over the coming months by:

• providing some seating,
• a drinking post with a self closing tap and dog bowl,
• a rubbish bin and upgrading the lighting;
• constructing a new pathway through the park to link existing footpaths on Melvista Avenue and Goldsworthy Road;
• rationalising and upgrading tree plantings;
• repairing and levelling the grassed areas;
• providing new timber bollards along the park/road edge and;
• realigning and modifying the Agett Road/Goldsworthy Road intersection to discourage speeding vehicles and improve safety for pedestrians crossing Goldsworthy Road.

A project board with a coloured plan showing the proposed improvements will soon be erected in the park.

Your response to the Council’s proposal is welcomed. If you wish to make any comments on any aspect of the plan, please write to the CEO, Town of Claremont, PO Box 54, Claremont, WA, 6910 (for the attention of Grayden Provis, Manager Assets), or email toc@claremont.wa.gov.au by 25 January 2008.

Library Entrance Works

The Town of Claremont is proposing to upgrade the entrance to the Town of Claremont library to ensure universal access for all visitors to the facilities and administration building. This project is one of many the Town has identified as being worthy of inclusion in its “Infrastructure Renewal Programme 2006 – 2010”.

 

The Infrastructure Renewal Programme is a commitment to the future by the Town which sets out a five years plus plan to progressively implement a range of practical and achievable projects aimed at repairing and upgrading streets, parks and community facilities throughout the municipality over the coming years, mainly under the following three categories:

 

  • upgrading parks and reserves;
  • improving pedestrian links to activity centres and railway stations and;
  • improving streetscapes, road surfaces, drainage and the management of traffic.

 

Site works will commence on Sunday 27th January 2008. The project is scheduled for completion late April 2008.

 

The pathway leading down from the Bay View Terrace footpath will be closed for the duration of works. Access to the Library and the Main Office lower and side entrances will be maintained at all times via the car park. In an effort to minimise disruption and avoid confusion, a uniformed ‘meeter and greeter’ will be on duty during business hours to assist members of the public wishing to use the Library.

 

If you wish to make any further enquiries on any aspect of the plan, please contact Mr Grayden Provis, Manager Assets on 9285 4300.
