JACK MARKS RESERVE

The City of Vincent is set to install a new homestead-style fence and carry out eco-zoning works at Jack Marks Reserve.

The reserve is located at the intersection of Broome, Wright, and Turner Streets in Highgate.

Following community feedback received in November, the new fence will be installed at a height of 900mm.

The project will begin with the removal of the existing fence, followed by landscaping for the eco-zoning areas. This will include mulching and preparation for planting. Additionally, the grassed verge along Wright Street will be replaced with crushed pea gravel to complement the native garden.

Work is scheduled to begin in late April 2025 and expected to take approximately 2–3 weeks to complete.

Temporary fencing will be in place during this time to ensure the safety of park users. Please note that some street parking may be limited due to materials and equipment required.
