Council is upgrading Richardson Park in Goodna, and is looking for your input to help shape the project.

About the project

The playground, amenities block and exercise equipment will be upgraded as part of the project. Equipment for users of all ages and abilities will be incorporated into the upgrade.

The park upgrade will align with the Brisbane Terrace road widening project. This project includes formal parking and Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) compliant parking near the park which will assist park users when they visit.

Have your say

The detailed concept design was developed using the feedback we received from community in February 2022. You could then have your say on anything in the detailed concept design that you would like to change.

Thank you for helping us shape the design for the Richardson Park in Goodna upgrade. Construction has begun and is estimated to be completed by June 2024, dependent on site and weather conditions.

Detailed Concept Design

Let us know if there is anything in the detailed concept design that you would like to change why?

There is nothing here about improving the apalling condition of the adjacent boat ramp, easily the worst anywhere on the Brisbane River.

Soft fall as opposed to bark. Cater for kids whom eat the bark, won't have nasties hiding in bark. Water play area. Fenced. Seating.

Variety of interactive equipment for toddlers. More than 2 x toddler swings. Slides that don't get hot or not placed in the sun. Shade.

Shade cloth OVER the play equipment. Would be great to plant trees that will canopy over Playground but is shade cloth until trees grown.

Dry creek beds are pointless once plants mature. Water play areas are so expensive to maintain and let’s face if council won’t maintain it

Whatever's done has to be VERY solid & able to withstand the onslaught it'll get from those who always try to destroy whatever's around.

Big slides and climbing structures that the kids can actually climb.

Please make sure your climbing structures are not just for the younger children/toddlers. My older kids 10 plus love coming to the park.

Prob too late but Boat structures tend to be boring tho I get the river cliche. Kids prefer towers + big slides. Castle+Moat? Mars+Shuttle?
