Recent upgrades are powering up Coronation Park but there is more to come.

Kiama Council recently installed three-phase power to the popular park at Surf Beach.

“It’s ideal for the Farmers Market, which has lots of food stalls, mobile kitchens and coffee carts,” a Council spokesperson said.

Council also recently upgraded the play equipment in the park as it tends to attract rust being so close to the beach.

However, it hasn’t been all good news for Coronation Park lately, with the park to undergo remediation works on the grass following the overflow from the surf during recent wet weather.

“Coronation Park is well used by visitors on a weekend, but also by locals during the week for exercise groups, for schools, so we’ve really got to consider their usage, so that during any upgrade their needs are considered with regards to how that upgrade is managed,” Kiama Mayor Cameron McDonald said.

“What we’re are looking at is the damage from the ocean, essentially wrecking the park. And there’s works involved to try and upgrade the level of the park and the grass covering.”

The works are expected to begin next month and will likely to take several months.

“We know this will be an inconvenience, but the work is necessary.

"Council will keep you informed and updated, as we move through the process.

"We’re looking forward to having one of our most popular parks back to where it should be,” Cr McDonald said.

Funding for the remediation works will come from the Crown Lands reserve.
