Mathison Park in Churchill gets new boardwalk funded $90,000 through Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program
Mathison Park in Churchill is more accessible with the upgrade of one of the boardwalks along the walking path.
Local MP Darren Chester said the $90,000 project was stage one of boardwalk renewals for the park. "Mathison Park is a beautiful green space for locals and visitors to enjoy and walk around Lake Hyland. The old timber boardwalk has been replaced to be more accessible and easier for bike riders and path users to cross over the wetlands space." Mr Chester said.

The project was funded through the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program and administered by Latrobe City Council.
