$80k funding for lighting upgrade at Bathurst Street Park
At Tuesday night’s Council meeting, Council resolved to invest $80,000 to upgrade the lighting on the western soccer field at Bathurst Street Park in Greystanes.
This investment will now bring the field up to the 100 lux standard required by Soccer Australia to play competitive night games.
Funding for the project came from Round 2 of the federal government’s Regional and Local Community Infrastructure Program and compliments the Round 1 grant to upgrade the playground equipment at the same park.
Bathurst Street Park is used by a number of local schools, tennis groups, the Greystanes Groovers Playgroup, the Greystanes Soccer Club and the Greystanes Cricket Club.
These improvements will hopefully help facilitate healthier and more active lifestyles for our youth.
