The Plan

This refurbishment will include a new bespoke landscape that meets the needs of the local community and is resilient for the future. We will support people to be healthier and happier through improved accessibility to a variety of passive and active recreational opportunities, and we will change the look and feel of the park to be welcoming to all.

The project will also see us design a new playground for children aged 0-14 with an increased capacity to allow more children to play at the same time. We will also provide diverse equipment that is accessible to all children, and which provides opportunities to develop fine motor skills and encourage active lifestyles.

What happens next?

Once this phase of consultation has concluded, all of the feedback will be carefully considered to decide on potential designs for the refurbishment. We will then run a second round of consultation, which will ask the public to help us select a final design.

The changes will be implemented as part of a phase implementation programme, running into 2025.

Whilst every attempt will be made to construct the final design to plan, certain elements may have to be altered during the implementation stage due to unforeseen technical or logistical issues.
