We have started the annual program of preparing our sportsgrounds for the upcoming summer cricket season.
Works are currently underway across 28 sportsgrounds throughout the city. During this period, ovals may be temporarily closed to allow for essential maintenance and preparation.
Each ground undergoes several important stages, including coring, seeding, topsoiling, and ongoing upkeep to ensure they are in peak condition for the season ahead.
These works take place from August through to the end of October, and while we do our best to minimise inconvenience, there may be some disruptions to access.
We ask all community members to respect signage and closures on site to ensure the works can be completed safely and efficiently.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we prepare our grounds for another fantastic season of summer sport.
Find out more about out sportsgrounds and details about booking grounds on the sports webpage.

Council is currently planning upgrade works on Pass Road, Rokeby, between Glebe Hill Road and Connor Place. It is intended the upgrading work from Winterborne Road to Connor Place be undertaken in 2025-2026, subject to contractor availability, with these works to be followed by the upgrading work from Glebe Hill Road to Winterborne Road.
Council plans to improve and widen the road so that it is more suitable for the increased traffic and type of vehicles using the road. Additionally, a shared path is to be provided on the western side of Pass Road from Glebe Hill Road to Winterborne Road with allowance for a possible future shared path from Winterborne Road to Connor Place.
The road widening will also require the relocation of some underground services and overhead power lines and poles.
