More than 16,000 new plants will soon be planted throughout Hercules Street Park as part of $10 million in upgrades set to transform Brisbane’s Northshore.
Minister for State Development and Planning Cameron Dick says significant planning went into the design of the park, which also includes an innovative irrigation system to keep the new plants thriving.
Mr Dick says the 16,000 plants will give life to the park’s many facilities such as the barbecue and picnic areas, children’s playground, dog off-leash area and walking paths – which will be fully lit at night.
The upgrades are set to be complete by the end of this year.
