Sutherland Shire Council is preparing a masterplan for Albert Delardes Reserve and the vacant lot of land at the end of Old Ferry Road, Illawong. A draft masterplan has been developed and is now on public exhibition. The feedback received during the public exhibition period will assist with further development of the masterplan.
The masterplan proposes new facilities and picnic areas while improving river access and enhancing the natural features of the area. The proposal for the Albert Delardes Reserve component of the masterplan includes the following:
-
new playground and seating area
-
improved and resurfaced carpark
-
improved river access
-
a floating pontoon for small boat pull-in and kayak launching
-
walking trails and general landscape improvements
The proposal for the Old Ferry Road component of the masterplan includes the following:
-
new picnic area
-
formalised carpark
-
fishing spots
-
a ramp for kayak and canoe launching
-
a temporary pull-in bay for small boats
-
improvements to the landscape and waterfront
Implementation of the first stage of the project will be in 2013 while other stages will be subject to future funding. The scope for the first stage of the project will be determined following this public consultation stage.
