Nudgee residents can now enjoy a significantly enhanced recreation reserve after the completion of a major improvement project was announced.
The revamped reserve boasts many new sporting and recreation facilities designed to cater to the growing population in Brisbane’s northern suburbs.
The project has transformed the reserve into a multi-functional hub featuring shared-use sporting fields equipped with lighting for improved nighttime visibility. A new 223-space car park and pathway connections to Nudgee Train Station and Railway Street provide easy access for visitors.
The upgrade also caters to various recreational activities, with a dog off-leash area, BMX track, playground, picnic settings with shelters and barbeque facilities, and a walking/running/cycling path. The recently opened clubhouse offers change rooms, meeting rooms, storage, and public toilets, further enhancing the reserve’s amenities.
Adding a touch of sporting inspiration, the iconic CommBank Matildas mural has found a new permanent home at the Nudgee Recreation Reserve. Initially a temporary installation at Howard Smith Wharves, the mural by Sid Tapia celebrates the Matildas’ historic match in Brisbane during the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023.
The revitalised reserve, now the northern base of Football Queensland, provides a fitting backdrop for this tribute to women’s football and inspires aspiring young players.
Completing the Nudgee Recreation Reserve improvement project significantly invests in the community’s well-being. It will provide a modern and inclusive space for residents to enjoy various sporting and recreational activities.
