This petition of certain residents of the Australian Capital Territory draws to the attention of the Assembly that:
The Torrens community playground, located in Block 16, Section 22, Torrens (next to the Torrens Shops) requires updated play equipment, sun protection and access to be re-established from the Torrens Shops. In early 2017, some of the equipment from the playground, as well as the access from the Torrens Shops to the playground, was removed. There has been limited investment in Torrens community facilities, with the playgrounds in this suburb lagging behind, both in size and quality when compared to other suburbs in Woden and Canberra. All the play spaces across Torrens are limited and outdated.
Your petitioners therefore request the Assembly to:
Upgrade the playground at Block 16, Section 22, Torrens (next to the Torrens Shops) by allocating additional funding for new play equipment, shade, and re-establishing appropriate access between the Torrens Shops at Torrens Place and the playground.
