Age Friendly Community Plan
Figure 26: How satisfied are you with the provision of Outdoor Spaces and Buildings in the Shire of Goomalling?
There appear to be little specific areas of concern regarding the provision of outdoor spaces and buildings. Comments were mostly focused on the provision of family and youth oriented spaces. Several comments noted the need for a skate park, which is seen as “desperately needed for the youth.” Other comments identified the “significant lack of appropriate youth spaces” and the need for an increase in shaded parkland “for family picnics, community events...and passive recreation and walking trails.”
Accessibility issues were again disclosed in relation to the heaviness of doors at the local supermarket, chemist and CRC. In general, there is a consensus that outdoor spaces and buildings are “very well thought out.”
Transport and Movement
36% of respondents are satisfied with the provision of transport and movement. 46% of respondents are either unsatisfied or very unsatisfied and 14% are neither satisfied nor dissatisfied.
