FAQs
Is the project an upgrade to existing facilities, or a new facility?
This project will deliver a new skate park facility in a different area within Silver Bridle Park. The old skate park will be demolished.
What type of works are planned?
The project involves construction of a new contemporary concrete skate park.
Will the works be staged over multiple construction phases?
No, the works will be constructed in a single phase.
Will the existing facilities be usable while the new works take place?
Access to the existing park facilities should not be impacted as construction will take place in a different part of the park.
What kind of increase in capacity will the project provide?
The new facility will increase capacity through a larger, more usable skate park that supports a wider range of users and skill levels, from beginners through to more experienced riders.
Why are these works being carried out?
The existing skate park has reached the end of its useful life and no longer meets current user demands or contemporary standards. The upgraded facility will better meet the needs of the local skateboarding and scooter riding community.
