An agreement between the State Government and the City of Subiaco will allow for future public access to Subiaco Oval and paves the way for master planning for the precinct.
A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the two parties allows for the revocation of the Management Order over Subiaco Oval and Kitchener Park.
Site works for the new Inner City College on Kitchener Park are due to commence next month.
The MOU confirms the retention of the Subiaco Oval playing surface and the inclusion of a ‘green belt’ to link Mueller Park to the Subiaco Oval playing surface.
A shared user agreement will be developed to enable access to the oval for students, junior sport, the general public and the West Australian Football Commission.
A key focus of the future master planning for the precinct will be the inclusion of as much active recreation space as possible.
Master planning will also address traffic, transport, access and parking arrangements, and heritage interpretation of the precinct.
