Builder: Dura Constructions

                 

Description: 

A transformation of the Cliff Sambell pavilion is underway as part of a $2.8 million upgrade to Gerry Green Reserve in Parkdale.

The upgrades to the 50-year-old pavilion and surrounding site will have long-lasting benefits for the community as well as local sporting groups; the Parkdale Cricket Club and Parkdale Vultures Amateur Football Club.

​

Although the site has fared well over the last half-century; the replacement of the aging infrastructure will reinvigorate the site and encourage better participation in local sport for women and girls.

​

New sporting amenities, upgrades to female and male change rooms, a larger social area, and additional cool rooms, will make it easier for the clubs to retain and attract new members.

​

Construction commenced in October 2017 and is expected to take approximately 12 months. The contract was awarded to Clayton South-based Dura Constructions Pty Ltd.

​

The project is funded by Council with support from the Victorian Government ($595,000) and the Parkdale Cricket Club and Parkdale Vultures Amateur Football Club also contributing $50,000 each to the upgrades.
