February 2023 Update - Consultation Open
Council is proposing a new public amenities in Central Park, Lidcombe.
The new amenities will be automated toilets, focusing on access,
safety and serviceability. These will be consistent with other amenities within the Cumberland local area, such as in the Berala town centre. These toilets comply with disability access requirements, are self-cleansing, highly durable and reduce safety and crime risks.
The amenities will be located in a central, convenient location within Central Park, providing easy and equitable access to high-use areas such as the playground. Other factors considered in selecting this location include:
- The minimisation of disruption related to connecting services (i.e. sewer)
- The placement of the amenities outside heritage areas as to not impact heritage values
- Principles of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED)
