Greenheart Master Plan survey 2024
Consultation has concluded
Help us shape the Gold Coast's largest outdoor recreation space - Greenheart
Greenheart is a 257 hectare site located in the suburbs of Merrimac and Robina, situated at the centre of the city’s urban footprint. The development of Greenheart is the largest open space and recreational facility project ever undertaken by the City. This development is a direct response to the Gold Coast’s significant population growth and the need to continue to provide high quality parks and infrastructure for the community.
The City of Gold Coast has prepared the Greenheart Master Plan which proposes eight unique precincts featuring a wide variety of open space and recreation facilities. We are seeking your feedback on what you think about the Greenheart Master Plan and each of the precincts.
How you can have your say:

Our team will be available at various locations during this engagement period, you can attend any of the Community Consultation Pop up Sessions if you wish to connect with the team directly.
Community engagement runs from Friday 31 May to Monday 1 July 2024.

Working with people with disabilities makes you realise there are never enough seats undercover to take short rests or escape the rain.Please consider this.
1 comment2Sam Harris17 days agoMulti purpose court spaces for socials sports like 3 on 3 basketball, pickleball etc
Look at having some hard court areas in the precinct that can be used for a range of social sports - 3 on 3 basketball, pickleball, netball, volleyball etc. Need to have a min of 4 courts in this area and they need to be well lighted so they can be used at night. Make it a space that welcomes youth and create a hub within the precinct that links the courts, an outdoor gym and a space to gather and connect

1 comment8cookn967 days agoRunning path
Plenty of concrete path for runners to enjoy similar to the esplanade which is not updated to be wide enough for all walker/runners/prams to have space. Thank you. This may also provide a place for run clubs to meet and reduce congestion at the beach.
0 comment0Clevitch14 days agoHow is there not a pump track front and center given the popularity of Pizzy Park?
Given the success and overwhelming popularity of the pump track at Pizzy Park it's a bit of a travesty and quite short-sighted not to have one front and centre in this concept design

sharonhartridgeabout 1 month agoAmenities ie bathrooms
Amenities ie bathrooms were not mentioned for all areas. Bathrooms are a must right throughout Greenheart. Overall plans are terrific, any “Dissatisfied” rating in my survey were purely to do with that omission.
1 comment5Dutchy29 days agoThe multi purpose hard courts should be covered and have lights Have at least 12 courts for fast growing sport of pickle ball
0 comment1Barbara Justabout 1 month agoThe fastest growing sport globally is Pickleball and already the Gold Coast has a minimum of 5 places to play but these are limited
A full centre with 24 courts some covered a coffee shop/restaurant and licensed premises are needed and will bring huge tourism and competitions to the Gold Coast
0 comment3WilliamLarcombeabout 1 month agoIs there regular public transport access? Could bike/scooter paths be separate from pedestrian paths? Could solar panel roofing be used ?
0 comment3plz1019229 days agoHave indoor facilities such as multifunctional aquatic center, tennis courts, basketball courts and have EV charging stations installed
More Indoor Sports Facilities needed as we face more extreme weather conditions which could limit outdoor recreational activities.

Sean Genders23 days agoGenuine wildlife corridors
While the councils plan to have 51% of green space has to be applauded, the problem that exists is that none of it links together. The plan has to be altered to create unbroken wildlife corridors, free of roads and human interaction, in order to ensure that wildlife is free to move around, from the hills to the sea, free from attacks by roaming, unleashed dogs, being killed by vehicles and all of the many other issues raised by human interaction.
0 comment1Peter Dawsonabout 1 month agoThere is a good mix facilities - they are all needed in a growing community. Prioritise habitat - the natural spaces should be increased.
Retaining and restoring habitat (Woody Hill, Wetlands, Wild Life Corridor) should be a priority. It takes the longest to establish and is at most risk of being omitted in the competition for funds during delivery. These areas should be increased.
1 comment3gcrp13 days agoNeed more information on the heritage impact
This is the biggest heritage site on the Gold Coast, and the information provided barely mentions anything about it. What’s the impact on both the European Heritage and the Aboriginal heritage of the site? It is very concerning that it’s not being properly considered.
0 comment2David Radloff26 days agoWildlife Habitats
Please increase the size of the wildlife habitat / natural areas in the project. The more wetlands, natural creek areas and tree woodland forests there are, the better off for both the wildlife and people!
0 comment14Allahabout 1 month agoA Dedicated Prayer Room
Robina has the 2nd largest Muslim population on the GC (after Labrador), so it would be great for the council to include a prayer room with ablution facilities for the residents to use at the park.

NevStrideabout 1 month agoFurther impact on flooding in Worongary Creek.
As this area is a floodplain for Worongary & Mudgeeraba Creeks it is a concern that this will increase the issues currently before council (ie petition) regarding more and more properties being flooded year on year particularly in Worongary Creek.

0 comment0Lynmck6 days agoa space for clubhouse / storage shed for kayaks etc so a club can provide learn to kayak for all ages groups.
If the master plan on the creek can include infrastructure for kayak storage and club - the club can provide learn to kayak programs , group training sessions for all ages - juniors through to masters - varsity lake sports house storage facilities great model - clubs / individuals pay for storage of kayaks and train their daily . Clubs have stored kayaks that community members can learn to kayak , clubs provide coaches for group training and fitness sessions.

0 comment0Razor6 days agoThe floodplain was mostly wet & treeless prior to European settlement full of Brolgas, raptors & swans a very foreign concept to the GC
Restore the site back to treeless wetlands rather than novel treescapes which exclude the birds of the wet open plains so characteristic of the Great Swamp of old.

0 comment0Samuel wang21 days agoPublic transport (tram line)
Someway to get to the park would be very helpful, like a tram line that goes from Robina station through, Robina town centre, to the new parklands. This we can boost health lifestyles for younger and older people, with the cost of living a cheaper alternative to get to this area would be amazing especially if events are going to be held here. Tram lines would also take more cars off the road and enable for less parking at the parklands especially during events and connect people from Brisbane and all over the Gold Coast.
