Barton Recreation Reserve in Cranbourne West is set for a new fence under a Liberal Government.

The opposition has allocated $40,000 to erect the fence as part of their upgrades for sporting infrastructure across the state.

Liberal candidate for Cranbourne, Jagdeep Singh, said the reserve lies in the heart of the growing Cranbourne West.

“This new fence will mean teams can take full advantage of the field without the worry of the ball bouncing onto the road or smashing through someone’s window,” Mr Singh said.

Other sporting facilities in the area also promised to be upgraded by the Liberals include Berwick Churches Soccer Club’s home ground at Grices Road Reserve, and Tooradin Recreation Reserve.

Both the Tooradin and Berwick facilities will also be upgraded under Labor.
