This is not a dog park, it is essentially an empty block of land with no fencing, dangerously close to 3 roads and the grass is overgrown

Don't bother wasting your time taking your dog to this pathetic excuse for a leash free area. There's no garbage bin, no water, and now a large chunk of it is being used as a construction site!

What an insult of an off leash area. An overgrown area of bush with about 50 m2 of short grass bordered on three sides by road. Only useful if you have a lazy old dog that wants to meander and sniff.
