Dogs and their owners will drool at the sight of the upgraded Hurry Reserve dog off-leash area, with a range of improvements now on the cards.
The reserve in Kyneton will be redesigned with designated areas for both active and quiet dogs through upgraded fencing and paths – alongside new shelters, seating, signage and more – aiming to create a safe and more accessible space for dogs and their owners.
The upgrades will be funded by a $99,000 grant through a state government dog park grants program.
Mayor Dom Bonanno said the council will keep the community informed about planned improvements and designs, ensuring the area better suits local needs.
“We know how much our residents love their dogs, and this new park will give them a fantastic space to exercise, socialise, and have fun,” Mr Bonanno said.
“This upgrade means that every dog and pup, whether they love to run or prefer a relaxed environment, will have a space that suits them,” he said.
“We thank the [state government] for helping us to make this upgrade a reality.”
The council will provide more information and firmer timelines as planning progresses, with completion of the project aimed for June next year.
