Central Coast Council will celebrate the start of the $23.71 million regional sporting complex located on Lake Road, Tuggerah on Wednesday 22 February at 9am.

The Tuggerah Regional Sporting and Recreation Complex is in a prime position to attract regional, state and even national events with Tuggerah train station and the M1 motorway close by providing direct links to Sydney and Newcastle.

The first stage will consist of nine playing fields, including a premier field, public amenities such as change rooms, canteen, toilets and store rooms. There will also be public car and bus parking as well as a shared pathway within the site.

The project was made possible with the support of the Australian Government’s $10 million National Stronger Regions Fund and Council’s $13.71 million.
