The final stage of upgrades at Mick Hanfling Park, Lake Kurwongbah, is underway, with new facilities expected to be ready ahead of the summer holidays.
Seqwater is delivering a new amenities building, accessible pathway, kayak washdown facility and bench shelter, with work expected to finish around December 10.
Visitors will still be able to drive into the eastern section of the park on weekends, but weekday vehicle access will be restricted due to heavy machinery movements and ongoing construction activities.
The eastern section can be accessed via the main park entrance on weekends, while the western section will remain closed as an active construction area.
The latest works build on improvements completed earlier this year, including road widening, additional parking and better water access.
The parkĀ reopened for the September school holidays following the first stage of upgrades, before work began on the remaining facilities.
Seqwater expects the final stage to be completed by December 10, subject to weather and construction conditions, and is asking visitors to follow onsite signage and plan ahead while temporary access arrangements remain in place.
