Greater Shepparton City Council would like to advise that the All Abilities Playground at Victoria Park Lake in Shepparton will be closed for maintenance for a period of two weeks, from Monday 19 May 2025.
In Summary
The playground and public toilets within the compound will be closed to the public during this time to allow Council to undertake routine maintenance.
