Alex Bell Playground - (Pirate Park)

Ahoy, Me Hearties! Clarence Valley Council is planning to upgrade Alex Bell Park Playground, South Grafton. This upgrade is required to bring all the play equipment up to date with the latest Australian Standards for safety, as well as improve the play experience of the existing play space, or for you pirates out there, Ye old Alex Bell playground be due fer replacin' Arrhhh!!!!

Key improvements proposed in the concept include:

• Provide a range of play experiences and cater to a range of age groups through active, imaginative, creative, social, quiet and free play
• Connect the playground to the amenities building with a universally accessible path
