ROAD SAFETY CENTRE

Public BBQ

This peculiar gem feels like discovering a secret playground where children's birthday parties and road safety education collide delightfully. A secure, enclosed area with working traffic lights and crossing signals where kids tear about on bikes while parents actually relax. Facilities include proper lift access, clean toilets, barbecue facilities, and shaded playground. At $27 for two hours, it's refreshingly honest pricing. The multigenerational appeal shines - parents who celebrated here in the '90s now watch their own five-year-olds experience the same unbridled joy. Mind the wasps near food areas.
