A nine-hectare block of land in Brisbane’s west that was purchased by Brisbane City Council more than 10 years ago is about to open for public use.

The council paid about $2 million for the land on Moggill Road in Moggill with plans to build a sports park on the site.

The $16.7 million Moggill District Sports Park at the site is now nearing completion, with two cricket and AFL ovals, four tennis and netball hard courts as well as playground, barbecues and a canteen on the site.

The facility has 180 car spaces but is currently difficult to access by public transport.
