Myilly Point landscaping and playground

The Northern Territory Government has committed to creating cool active spaces at Myilly Point.

The new Myilly Point playground precinct will comprise a youth zone and an adventure play zone:

• the youth zone will provide:
  • a basketball half court
  • skate area
  • tropical landscaping
  • services
• the adventure play zone will provide:
  • shaded play equipment
  • active climbing areas
  • balance beams
  • seating.

Additionally, Myilly Point will have:

• shaded central picnic area, with barbeques, facilities for food vans and amenities
• one kilometre looped walking and running track
• one mile (1.6 kilometres) walking and running track
• outdoor exercise stations.

This project will enable broader development of the site at a later time.

Asbestos remediation of the playground precinct site is underway with the excavation of the containment cell completed. Placement and containment of the contaminated material will commence in early July, with completion of the work by mid-August.
