We’re making Lavington Square even better. You’ll see plenty of changes to your local Lavington Square. A new look Food Court has now arrived! The toilets in the food court are temporarily closed for a refresh. Toilets near OPSM will open as usual. Parents change tables are available in the disabled bathroom. You'll find a temporary Parents Room near Harmony Massage. The toilets are due to reopen mid June. And you may have already noticed new car park painting and entry signage. Great food deserves a space that lifts your mood. That’s why the Fresh Food Precinct has a new fresh look. You might notice some final touches – it’s all part of the refresh. You'll also notice changes to our common area outside EB Games as we install the Lavington Square Playarea. We expect all upgrades to be completed by July but as you know some things can change so keep an eye out for regular updates on the Lavington Square Facebook Page. Don't worry, all retailers and car parks will stay open and most work happens after hours. Thanks for your patience as we make Lavington Square better than ever.
