We are pleased to announce construction will begin Monday 18 March 2024. Works are expected to be completed in May 2024.

Trott Park Trail

Community Consultation was held in September 2023 to consider a trail through 4 reserves:

  • Tyson Avenue Reserve
  • Reserve Street Reserve
  • Scarvell Avenue Reserve
  • Klippel Avenue Reserve

The community were asked their preference from 3 options

  • Option 1: Trail only
  • Option 2: Trail with Australian art
  • Option 3: No trail

The preferred option from the consultation was Option 1.

Option 1 - Trail Only

Specific trail features include:

  • A longer trail than Option 2, running through the whole length of Tyson Avenue Reserve and connecting to the dog park entry near Rix Court
  • 4 x new bench seats
  • Increased tree and native planting

About the Reserve

Reserve Street Reserve in Trott Park features a large dedicated dog park with biodiversity area, playground, picnic area with BBQ and shelter, 3 on 3 Basketball and a grassed kickabout area.

Dog Park

In September 2016, the City of Marion opened its first official Dog Park at Reserve Street Reserve, Trott Park.

The dog park features high fencing, double-gates, dog bag stations, shelter, seating and natural logs.

There is a fenced biodiversity area situated within the dog park (part of the Great Southern Urban Forest), however it is environmentally sensitive and not suitable for dogs to enter.

Playground

The playground at Reserve Street Reserve in Trott Park is a neighbourhood playground that was upgraded in 2010, with shade sails added in July 2018.

It features a multistation with a climbing wall, spiral slide, balancing bridge and monkey bars.

There is a standard swing, infant swing and basket swing.

You can also play basketball on the 3 on 3 court, kick a ball about on the grassed area or scoot/walk/cycle on the concrete path circling the grass.

BBQs, picnic tables and seating make this a social park to relax in.
