From Monday, the Waroona Community Precinct will be known by the new name RAILSIDE PARK. The new name pays homage to a pivotal moment in our local history — the completion of the Perth to Picton railway in 1893. It is also a play on words for the skateboarding community, referring to the use of the rail at a skatepark to perform tricks.

The Waroona Community Precinct development continues to progress with a Noongar Six Seasons garden featuring as part of the landscaping layout.

The next phase of development on the Waroona Community Precinct is a big step closer, with the Shire of Waroona advertising the tender for landscape and civil works.

Construction of the Waroona Community Precinct is officially underway, with a ground-breaking ceremony commemorating the start of the project this week.
