What we heard about your vision for Leichhardt Oval

31 May 2023

From 18 November 2022 - 14 March 2023 Council invited the community and key stakeholders to get involved in the planning for Leichhardt Oval.

Three community drop-in sessions were held during the engagement period to allow community members to ask questions of the project team and share their ideas in person. An online survey and interactive mapping tool were also used to capture ides and opportunities.

Over 370 people took part in the engagement including local residents, spectators, athletes and other key stakeholders.

Key areas the community want to see addressed in the master plan include:

  • Improvements to transport, traffic and parking infrastructure
  • Better access to public and active transport options
  • Building stronger neighbourhoods - better facilities for socialising in the public realm
  • Environmentally and financially sustainable solutions
