About the Project

Wagga Wagga City Council is revitalising the amenities at Kessler Oval. These upgrades are designed to create safer spaces for women in sports, and more accessible local amenities for People with Disabilities.

The revitalised space and new infrastructure will include two designated female-friendly change rooms; a set of new male and female public toilets; a dedicated referee’s room; and a new accessible public toilet.

These new amenities will dovetail with additional safety features to be installed onsite, including CCTV and a swipe card-controlled access system.
