Hicks Street Park is getting a play renewal!

Located in North Fremantle and tucked within the Northbank Precinct, the Hicks Street Park is a compact green space well-used by local residents. The Place & Projects Team has received capital works funding in the 2024/25 budget to give the existing play facilities at Hicks Street Park a tidy refresh. City Officers went to the Hicks St. Park community in late 2024 to discuss this project, and in response to items raised by local residents, the engagement process has been expanded.

The scope of this renewal project includes:

  • Replacing an old rocker play element with a new play feature to a similar size and value.
  • Consider relocating the existing park benches to create a more inviting space for nature play, and community socialising - subject to community feedback.

The City aims to align the implementation of this upgrade with scheduled winter planting at Hicks Street Park in June 2025, however this timeline may be adjusted subject to community feedback, with replacement play options outside the allocated budget of $10,000 being conditional to Council approval.

We are asking the community to:

  • Learn more about the project scope by exploring the Frequently Asked Questions and Key Documents.
  • Share what you currently love about the park and what replacement play element is most suitable by completing the Hicks St. Park Play Renewal Survey.
  • Attend the Hicks Street Park drop-in session (details below)

How can you meet with City Officers to discuss the park renewal?

City Officers aim to:

  • Provide clarity to the public on what changes will occur at Hicks Street Park
  • Inform the community on how to make future amenity requests and report issues with park infrastructure, safety and facilities within the City.
  • Listen to and acknowledge concerns raised and provide feedback on how public input influenced the project.

Please note: residents and businesses within the immediate area of Hicks Street Park should also receive a letter drop with the above information.

Submissions close AWST 5pm, March 31, 2025.
