The park was designed following consultation with the Ruse community and incorporated feedback from residents.
Work is scheduled for completion in April.
Mayor George Brticevic, picture above on site, says the new playground will be a substantial improvement for Cook Reserve.
“This new playground is going to be a magnificent place for parents, grandparents and carers to bring the kids down during an afternoon or weekend and enjoy a picnic,” Cr Brticevic said.
“Providing kids with access to somewhere where they can play in a modern and safe environment is a key part of our state of play strategy which guides the development of new parks across our city,” he said.
