Berwick Waters has a new parking coming!

Plans for our future Tree Walk Park are underway.

The creation of a stunning new centrepiece park in Berwick Waters' community is one step closer with the City of Casey’s approval of the unique concept plan.

To be called Tree Walk Park, the focal point of the 1.3ha slice of open space will be a canopy walk that weaves through mature trees with expansive views over the adjoining wetlands.

Located on the corner of Moorside Crescent and Crosswater Boulevard, Tree Walk Park is set to include a nature-based inclusive playground, fitness equipment, a half basketball and quarter netball court as well as four square courts, a grassy area for kicking a ball or tossing a frisbee, and a fenced dog park, for fur friends large and small.

Barbecues, precast concrete seating nooks, shelters, timber platform benches and public toilets will make Tree Walk Park the perfect place for family parties and picnics.

With the concept plan approved the next step is for the construction plans to be signed off. Works are likely to begin in the final months of this year for completion in the third quarter of next year.

Tree Walk Park was designed by UDIA-winning landscape architects and urban planners Tract who aimed to celebrate and take advantage of the plentiful mature trees already occupying the site.

As well as retaining existing mature trees, development of the park will include extensive planting of native trees and shrubs to fill out the parkland, including flowering, spotted and lemon-scented gums and banksias, coastal rosemary and white correa.

Sarah Bloom, General Manager Development – Victoria Frasers Property Australia said Tree Walk Park will be a much-loved community asset for residents of Berwick Waters.

“The design of this space is so thoughtful and inclusive it’s sure to become one of Berwick Waters’ most cherished assets,” she said. “We can’t wait for the community to enjoy it.”

Tree Walk Park is just one part of the 50 ha of open space planned for Berwick Waters, along with 9km of walking paths and bike trails.

Tree Walk Park will join Grand Prix Park in the College Green sector of Berwick Waters — with its kids racing track, mini trampolines, zipline and play tower — as a place for family fun and fresh air.
