  • Timeline item 2 - complete

    Finalise plans for new equipment

    We received 48 submissions during the consultation period. Many respondents supported the new equipment, while some raised concerns about the removal of swings. The most common themes included:

    • Maintaining the current swings
    • Adding shade
    • Introducing new play features such as slides and trampolines

    In response, the final plan includes:

    • A new multi-play structure with three slides and roofs for shade
    • An inground trampoline
    • 3m-high swings in a new location
    • Additional plantings where the old swings were located

    You can view the final playground design here and the consultation report here.

    Constuction

    Installation of the exciting new play equipment is due to commence 14 January 2026 and take approximately 8 weeks to complete (weather permitting) 🛝😍

    The playground will be closed during construction.

Randwick City Council is replacing some ageing play equipment at the Bieler Park playground on Frenchmans Road, Randwick.

The planned changes include:

  • Relocating the swings away from the fig trees and creating a new swing zone with four new swings - two junior seats, a toddler seat and an inclusive seat.
  • Creating a nature play area to replace the current swing zone, as the fig trees’ roots make the area unsuitable for play equipment that requires a stable ground surface.
  • Replacing the climbing frame and spinner with a new climbing structure and seesaw.

The multi-play equipment (slide and 'cafe') will remain.
