The park, which is a combination of open and tree-lined, sheltered areas, is fenced for off-leash playtime and encircled by a pedestrian pathway. Local residents had cited fear of crime and feeling vulnerable when in the area at night, as no lighting meant no vision of any surrounding areas.
The City of Mount Gambier therefore requested the design and construction of a lighting solution to cover as much area as possible to ensure the community felt safe and comfortable to use the facilities after dark.
