Fitness area, playground, shelter and amenities building at Gannan Park

The City of Ryde is committed to ensuring all families, park patrons and sporting user groups have access to safe, accessible and high-quality parks and sporting facilities.

As part of this commitment, and following community feedback received on the Gannan Park and McCauley Park Masterplan (adopted July 2019), Council has constructed a new amenities building and undertook a number of park upgrades at Gannan Park, Ryde.

What do the upgrades include?

New amenities building The new amenities building includes two unisex change rooms, public toilets with an accessible toilet, canteen with accessible servery window, referee/umpire change room and multiple storage areas.

Park upgrades -The park upgrades include an expanded playground, loop pathway/scooter track, two fitness nodes, relocated and enclosed cricket nets, expanded bush regeneration area, sports field lighting, garden bed enhancements and new pathway connections.

When will the park upgrades take place?

The construction of the park upgrades is now complete.

The new facilities - including the amenities building, fitness equipment, playground and pathway connections - are open for our community to enjoy.

Please note, the sports field is expected to remain fenced off until April 2026. This is to allow the drainage trench to settle and ensure the turf has time to establish.

In the meantime, you can also enjoy other recreation spaces nearby, such as Ryde Park, Pidding Park, or North Ryde Common.
