🌿 Turf Renovation Season Is Underway in Karratha! 🌱
As spring rolls in, so does our annual turf renovation season across the City of Karratha’s parks and ovals—running through September, October, and November. You might notice a bit of extra activity on your local oval, and here’s why:
🛠️ What’s Happening? To keep our green spaces healthy and ready for community use, the City is undertaking essential turf maintenance, including:
Verti-mowing – removing built-up thatch to promote stronger, fresher grass growth
Coring – improving soil aeration and drainage for long-term turf health
Top Dressing – smoothing out surfaces and enriching the soil for a lush, even finish
While the grass might look a little rough during the process, it’s all part of ensuring our parks and sporting fields bounce back better than ever—just in time for summer fun and local events.
🌞 Why It Matters These renovations help maintain safe, vibrant, and playable surfaces for everyone—from weekend cricketers to families enjoying a picnic. We are commitment to providing top-quality recreational spaces for our community.
Please be mindful of temporary closures and crews at work, and thank you for your patience while we give our turf the TLC it deserves!
