The Crest is 41 hectares of open space in Gledswood Hills and will deliver a sustainable, inclusive and connected community by activating public open space and unlocking public land for a range of leisure and recreational uses. 

The Crest Public Open Space Master Plan was adopted by Council in December 2021 following consultation with residents and other stakeholders. At the time, Council committed to further developing a detailed design of the proposed Stage 1 works.

The overall Master Plan has been broken into smaller stages to allow Council to best manage the development of the site. The delivery of Stage 1 will be the first to be delivered, with future stages to be developed in line with the master plan.

Stage 1 works will include:

• Bicycle learn to ride course;
• Mountain bike trail; 
• Amenities and shelter;
• Car parking;
• Kickabout areas; and
• Shared pathways.
