Georges River Council's large-scale landscape and stormwater naturalisation project within Lower Gannons Park is nearing completion. This includes the former Boggy Well Creek being diverted from an underground stormwater pipe to a reinstated creek. The water will flow through constructed wetlands, swales and bioretention systems, where it will be treated to remove pollutants.

A large wetland will store water for future treatment and reuse to irrigate the eight Gannons Park playing fields. A system of shared bike and pedestrian paths and boardwalks move through the site, connecting the community to this significant environmental construction project. Works are expected to be completed by 30 June 2020, weather dependent.
