Boggabri Open Spaces Master Plan Adopted

Published on 15 March 2024

Council has adopted the Boggabri Open Spaces Master Plan (Option A) and extends its thanks to the Boggabri Community for their feedback and contributions. The Master Plan aims to transform Boggabri Open Spaces into a new, welcoming, and fun place by implementing a range of community, visitor, amenity and access upgrades.

The Master Plan also affirms where the Civic Precinct (separately funded by Council’s Section 7.12 Development Contributions Fund) will be constructed and how it will integrate with the rest of Vickery Park and the surrounding area to ensure increased accessibility, amenity and user experience. The community will have an opportunity to shape the internal elements of the Civic Precinct prior to construction. Works on the Civic Precinct are scheduled to commence in 2025.

Highlights of the adopted plan include:

• A long-term plan for Boggabri, articulating the community’s vision for the area and
  provides a framework for future sustainable community infrastructure.
• Integrated and accessible shared pathway network across the Boggabri Township to provide opportunities for exercise, relaxation, and social interaction.
• A Civic Precinct which is integrated with the surrounding area and will include adequate lighting, and clear sightlines to ensure a safer and more connected area.

The Master Plan was funded by NSW Government's Resources for Regions Fund.
