This project will bring new life to Pitcher Park, a central part of the Alphington/ Fairfield community. Updating the current tired, dangerous, old fence will improve the experience and accessibility of Pitcher Park, a sporting ground and recreation area used by all members of the local community including girls, boys, adults and pets alike.
The project includes:
- New high quality, black chain wire fence with bottom and top railings with pedestrian and vehicle gates;
- New timber seating and tables strategically placed around the perimeter to enrich the spectator and BBQers experience

Pitcher Park is a central meeting place for community sporting and cultural activities. It's a central part of the local community fabric and caters to thousands of boys, girls and adults everyday all year round; be that a beautiful Sunday afternoon lazing under a tree with your dog or a cool winters friday night with hundreds of kids playing Auskick. The current fence is dangerous and in disrepair and there is a gross lack of seating. Such a pivotal place in the community deserves good quality, safe and aesthetically pleasing fencing and park furniture to enrich the park experience.

Several sections of the fence are currently quite dangerous and in desperate need of a fix. Pitcher Park is a heavily used venue and a centre of the local community football and cricket teams.

The existing fence is a hazard with exposed concrete footings and broken piping sections. Agree, it needs to be replaced.
