Greater Shepparton City Council will remove the existing brick toilet block and the former Word and Mouth building in the south west corner of Queens Gardens as part of the Master Plan development.
The Master Plan was developed in 2010 after consultation with a number of user groups and was updated in 2015 to correlate with the next phase of works.
The removal of the buildings will allow for extension of the pathway and pergola connecting Wyndham Street to Welsford Street along the southern boundary.
Greater Shepparton City Council Director Infrastructure, Gary Randhawa, said “Works have occurred over the years at the Queens Gardens with the guidance of the master plan. These works will enable the space to be more open and user friendly. We ask residents to please be mindful of the works and take care during the demolition”.
Works will begin in early March and are due to be completed by April, 2022.
