WORK on the pavilion redevelopment at Dingley Reserve is scheduled to begin next month.
A construction company has been appointed to redevelop the Souter Oval Pavilion at Dingley Reserve. The project is expected to cost $7.1 million, with $4.5 million coming from the state government. Most of the rest of the cost will be covered by Kingston ratepayers.
The redevelopment will see a two-storey pavilion with new change rooms, a social room, and kitchen built. The existing change rooms will also be refurbished and integrated into the new facility.
The sports ground is home to Dingley Cricket Club and Dingley Football Netball Club.
Kingston councillor George Hua said that council will continue to work to “update and modernise as many facilities as possible”.
“Inspiring greater involvement in local sport in turn brings massive physical and mental health benefits and promotes a more connected and supportive Kingston,” he said.
