Help shape the future of parks and outdoor spaces in Success. We’ve mapped what’s here and identified some areas for future focus, now we want to know if we’ve got it right.

We’re planning ahead to make sure Success's parks and outdoor spaces continue to meet the needs of our growing community, now and into the future.

In 2025, you told us what you value, what’s missing, and what could be better across Cockburn. We’ve used that feedback, along with site visits, mapping and planning analysis, to develop a draft Public Open Space Strategy.

Now we’re zooming in on Success.

We’ve mapped the parks and outdoor spaces in your suburb and identified how they currently function (and how they may need to function in the future) and where they sit in the catchment hierarchy.

We've got a draft plan - you're welcome to read it. We've put a lot of thought, time and effort into making this plan thorough and well thought out. But we know, not everyone has time to read this many pages, so we've extracted what we think is the key information for your City and suburb and included it here too. You can check out the draft plan in the document library and we welcome feedback on this.

We’ve highlighted some key considerations to help guide future improvements to parks and outdoor spaces in Success, and we want to know if they feel right to you.

While our focus is on overall directions for managing open space across Cockburn, we know that people are most interested in what this means close to home. That’s why we’ve included suburb-specific information so you can see how the trends and actions might apply to where you live.

Looking at the maps and proposed directions:

  • Does this feel right for Success?
  • Do you have enough parks and outdoor spaces nearby?
  • Are they easy to access and do they offer the right mix of nature, play and space to be active?

The draft plan sets overall directions for managing parks and outdoor spaces across Cockburn. It doesn’t include detailed playground equipment or individual park upgrades — we’ll come back to you about those separately.

Below, you’ll find:

  • A summary of what this means for Success
  • Key trends and proposed actions
  • A link to the full draft plan (if you’d like to dive deeper)

Your feedback will help us check we’ve got the balance right before the strategy is finalised.

Public Open Space in Success

  • What will the community need?

    Success is expected to grow significantly over the next 20 years, with both population growth and a rapidly increasing number of older residents. As more people rely on parks and outdoor spaces for recreation and social connection, future planning will focus on improving park diversity, upgrading local parks and ensuring parks continue to meet the needs of people of all ages.

  • What does Success have?

    Success has a large network of parks and recreation spaces, including:

    • local parks and neighbourhood parks throughout the suburb
    • Success Reserve and other recreation spaces
    • playgrounds distributed across most residential areas
    • dog exercise areas, including a fenced dog park
    • walking and cycling connections through parks and open spaces
    • regional open spaces and natural areas nearby

    All homes are within walking distance of a park or outdoor space.
