Play Space Strategy 2009-2014

A series of design guidelines has been developed as part of this play strategy to assist City of Greater Bendigo to ensure best practice open space quality and play value within play spaces. These design guidelines aim at providing best practices design principles for the layout of new local play spaces, as generally local play spaces will not be individually planned by a designated experienced open space planner. They may also serve as a benchmark for the upgrading of the future 113 local play spaces, but it is acknowledged that due to budgetary and staffing constraints it may not be possible to achieve upgrading of all local play spaces to the best practice standards.
