Meadowbank Park - Draft Plan of Management

Meadowbank Park is one of our major sporting and recreation areas in the City of Ryde.

Throughout the year it accommodates sport competitions and training needs. The park also facilitates diverse passive, active and informal use, including the skatepark opened in 2019 and a regional playground completed in 2023. The playground has been integrated into the landscape and provides a range of equipment and surfaces that are accessible and inclusive to all children.

The draft Plan of Management for Meadowbank Park identifies objectives, targets and proposes strategies to protect and guide the future maintenance and management of this Park, in accordance with the Local Government Act 1993 and Crown Land Management Act 2016.

This Plan applies to Community land owned by City Ryde and Crown land owned by the NSW State Government. They are managed under the Local Government Act 1993 and the Crown Land Management Act 2016. The Plan integrates management practices for both Community land and Crown land and will consider community feedback received during this public exhibition.

Following the public exhibition period, Council will consider the feedback received and further refine the Draft Plan of Management, if required.

A report will then be presented to Council in mid 2025 for adoption. Any latest updates will be available on this page.
